OK here what I experienced today.
I have Mehran VXR registered 2002 from Jhelum. Token fee is paid till 31, July 2012. Yearly token fee I am paying from last 3 year is 1490/year.
Today I decided to renew token fee from Jhelum. They have transferred the process of renewing token from GPO to ETO. I reached ETO Jhelum around 11.30 and went to a room. Guy there said that make a file to renew token from agent sitting outside. You have to make file for life time token ( remember there is no yearly token fee now. You must have to get life time token. another topi drama by GOVT.)
I said that what If i buy new car next year (or banday ka kia pata next year ho ya na ho). He said "Baoo gee. token to life time he lagay ga. 1 saal ka ab koe scene nai hai) He showed me a notification that he received from GOVT which said that "Vehicles under 1000 CC category must get life time token. They cannot renew token for a year)
So life time token fee for my car was (4500)..
One thing more. Car owner should be there because his/her CNIC copy is required and s/he has to sign the file. Car was on my brother name and he is in Saudia. Agenet said that car owner CNIC copy is required. So I arranged brother's copy and signed the file..
What this file contains:
CNIC photo copy of car owner
Car regisrtation book photo copy. (First 3 pages and last page there token was paid for last year).
2 Forms (having car detail) filled by agent and you signed that.
then you have to take that file with original car book to GPO to get verify that last year token was actually stamped by GPO. Guy at GPO just took 1 minutes and put a stamp on file "Verified for Token renew".
Then I came back to ETO and gave them the file. They wrote a number on file and said that come on Thursday with original book and token renew fee. Till then we have to enter your data into computer and process life time token request.
So conclusion is that
Vehicles less that 1000 CC must get LIFE TIME Token
You cannot renew for a year.
You have to pay fee for LIFE TIME Token (Govt is so poor)
If you buy a second hand car make sure that its life time token is paid otherwise you have to pay token fee again.
If you buy a new car you have to pay for LIFE TIME Token (10,000 Rs). (No yearly Token now)
