What is DLIMS AJK?

DLIMS stands for Driving License Information Management System. It is the official online licensing platform of the Azad Jammu and Kashmir Police, built and maintained as a technology partnership with the Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB).

The AJK Police operates citizen facilitation centers called Police Khidmat Markaz (PKM) across all 10 districts of Azad Jammu and Kashmir. DLIMS connects every one of these centers to a single centralized database, so your license record, challan history, and application status are managed from one integrated system rather than scattered paper files.

You can access the portal directly at dlims.ajkpolice.gok.pk.

Key features of the DLIMS portal

Before you start your application, it helps to know what the system actually offers:

  • Effortless online application — apply for a learner or permanent driving license from home, without visiting a Khidmat Markaz first.
  • Real-time tracking — a personalized dashboard shows your application status as soon as you log in with your tracking number.
  • Secure ePay payments — generate a Payment Slip ID (PSID) and pay through ATM, online banking, or mobile banking.
  • Centralized license database covering the whole of Azad Jammu and Kashmir.
  • Integrated challan and ticketing framework to help reduce vehicle-related violations and improve road safety.
  • Centralized license printing, ensuring every physical license issued across AJK follows the same verified format.

Documents required for an online application

Keep these ready as clear scans or photos before you begin:

  • A recent passport-size photograph (face clearly visible)
  • Scanned copy or photo of the front of your original CNIC
  • Scanned copy or photo of the back of your original CNIC
  • A medical certificate signed by a government doctor — required only if the applicant is above 50 years of age

You can also download the official Regular Driving License Form and the Medical Form in advance from the DLIMS downloads section.

How to apply for an AJK driving license online

Applying for your learner driving license in AJK through DLIMS takes four simple steps:

  1. Create an account on the DLIMS portal by visiting the signup page.
  2. Fill out the application form with your personal and vehicle category details (bike, car, etc.).
  3. Upload your documents — photo, CNIC front and back, and medical certificate if applicable.
  4. Generate your PSID and pay through ATM, internet banking, or mobile banking via the ePay system.

Once payment is confirmed, your application is processed automatically inside the centralized DLIMS database — no need to physically visit a Police Khidmat Markaz for the learner license stage.

DLIMS AJK license fees

The current online learner license fee structure is:

  • PKR 400 per application (applies to each vehicle category — bike, car, etc.)
  • PKR 50 operations and settlement charges per application

Fees are subject to revision by the AJK Police, so always confirm the exact amount shown on your generated PSID before paying.

How long does it take to get your license?

One of the biggest advantages of applying online is speed. Once you complete the form and confirm payment, your learner driving license is issued instantly — there's no multi-day waiting period for the learner stage.

How to download your driving license

After your application is approved, a digital copy of your learner driving license becomes available directly inside the account you created during signup. Simply log in to the DLIMS portal and access it from your dashboard, or use the E-License section for an official digital version.

Document upload guidelines

To avoid delays or rejection, make sure every document you upload is:

  • Clear and readable, with no blur or glare
  • Within the file size limits set by the portal
  • In an accepted format — PDF or JPEG

How to verify a driving license online

DLIMS also lets you confirm whether a driving license is genuine. Use the Verify License tool on the official portal to check license authenticity — useful for employers, transport companies, or anyone double-checking a license before hiring a driver.
