About this tool
Token tax is the annual motor-vehicle tax you pay to provincial excise, usually by engine capacity, not by the car's market price. This page uses private motor-car tables for Punjab, Sindh and Islamabad: enter cc, pick the province, and read an annual figure plus a monthly budget split. Motorcycles, commercial vehicles, luxury surcharges and quarterly tokens are not in the table. Bands are estimates with a source line on the card. Confirm on the excise e-pay portal before you transfer or renew.

- Enter engine capacity in ccUse the figure on the registration book, for example 1300 or 1600.
- Read annual token taxA monthly equivalent is shown only to help cash-flow, not because token is billed monthly everywhere.
What motor vehicle token tax is
Token tax is the annual tax every registered vehicle owner pays to the provincial Excise and Taxation department. For private cars it depends mainly on engine capacity in cc, not on the car’s price, and each province sets its own table.
Pay it once a year, at a designated bank or through the province’s online service, and keep the receipt in the car - driving with unpaid token tax can lead to a fine.
Key features
- Private-car cc bands instead of a single flat guess.
- Punjab, Sindh and ICT in one switch.
- Annual amount with an optional monthly budget line.
- Source note on the result so you know it is a modelled table.
Common uses
- Budgeting token tax before buying a 1300 cc car in Punjab.
- Comparing Sindh versus Punjab on the same engine size.
- Explaining to a buyer why a 2000 cc car costs more each year than a 1000 cc car.
Tips for better results
- Token tax is not FBR 231B. 231B is advance income tax at registration or transfer.
- Diesel, imported and luxury categories can sit on extra schedules.
- Keep the last paid token with the file; many buyers ask for it.
- If your book says 1299 cc, that is still the 1300 band on most tables.
Mistakes to avoid
- Using this for a motorcycle or a commercial loader.
- Confusing token tax with motorway toll or with 231B.
- Assuming Islamabad bands match Punjab at every cc.
- Paying from this estimate without the excise challan reference.
