How This Registration Fee Calculator Works
This tool estimates your one-time vehicle registration cost in Punjab using four simple inputs: vehicle type, engine capacity, whether the vehicle is local or imported, and whether it is a new registration or an ownership transfer. Imported vehicles carry a higher fee because of customs valuation and additional levies, which the calculator accounts for automatically.
Registration Fee vs Token Tax — What’s the Difference?
Many vehicle owners confuse these two charges. Registration fee is a one-time payment made when a vehicle is first registered with the Excise and Taxation Department. Token tax, on the other hand, is a recurring charge — paid annually for cars and usually as a lifetime payment for motorcycles. If you only need to estimate your yearly tax, use the Punjab Token Tax Calculator instead.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this calculator official?
No, it provides an estimate only. Final fee is confirmed at your local Excise and Taxation office or through the ePay Punjab app.
Why is the fee higher for imported vehicles?
Imported vehicles are assessed on customs value and attract additional duties, which raises the total registration cost compared to locally assembled models.
Does this include token tax?
No, this covers the one-time registration fee only. Use the Token Tax Calculator separately to estimate your annual or lifetime token tax.
Is the fee different for ownership transfer?
Transfer fees are generally lower than new registration and depend on the vehicle’s age and category. Select “Ownership Transfer” above for an adjusted estimate.
