Smart Vehicle Registration (SVR)

Abstract

There are about 150,000 registered vehicles and about 15,000 vehicles are registered every year, in the Islamabad district alone. Currently there is no IT infrastructure; the existing registration application and issuance systems are entirely manual which allows room for error and discrepancies. The purpose of 'Smart Vehicle Registration (SVR)' is to provide automation of vehicle registration on a nation wide basis to remove inconsistencies and ambiguities pertaining to the existing registration system. It is also going to be able to retrieve information pertaining to any VRN on/through a mobile device (present with the law and order unit of Pakistan). Currently, the motor vehicle registration process is completely manual taking up to 4 to 8 weeks depending on the time taken for verification. With the implementation of this project, the process will become completely automated with the total cycle time being reduced to one week. The proposed system will ensure minimum interaction of applicant with the E&TD once he/she has submitted the application with the required documents. Furthermore, instead of proper documents all registration relative information shall be stored on smart cards, for efficient processing.
