Excise Punjab Vehicle Registration Suspension 2025 – Non-Taxpayers Face Automatic Blocking After October 31
The Excise Punjab Vehicle Registration Suspension 2025 notice has officially been issued by the Punjab Excise and Taxation Department, warning vehicle owners that registrations of token tax defaulters will be automatically blocked after October 31, 2025.
This action targets all non-taxpayers who have not cleared their annual vehicle token tax despite multiple reminders. The department has confirmed that this move is part of its province-wide digital crackdown under the Excise Punjab Registration Block 2025 campaign.
⚠️ Strict Action Announced Against Token Tax Defaulters
According to the Excise Punjab Official Notice 2025, all vehicle registrations — including cars, motorbikes, commercial vans, and buses — will be suspended for non-payment of token tax.
The notice reads:
“Vehicle owners who fail to pay token tax by October 31, 2025, will face immediate suspension of registration without further warning.”
Officials added that this decision follows repeated delays by thousands of Token Tax Defaulters in Punjab, causing significant revenue loss to the provincial treasury.
The Excise Department has already started verifying unpaid vehicles through the digital record system, and owners are being alerted via SMS and e-notices to pay before the deadline.

The new registration suspension policy applies to:

Any vehicle listed as “Unpaid” in the Excise Punjab Vehicle Verification portal (excise.punjab.gov.pk) after the deadline will be marked “Suspended” in the central database.
