The vehicle owners need to provide their vehicle’s registration card to collect the E-tag. The stickers will be available for all vehicles, including those registered in Islamabad and other provinces.
The district administration has emphasized that the stickers will only be issued at approved points.
Earlier, Minister of State for Interior Talal Chaudhry said the government would make electronic tagging compulsory for every vehicle entering or operating in the city. He stated that no vehicle would be allowed on Islamabad’s roads without an e tag, enabling authorities to monitor movement more effectively.
The decision comes after the suicide blast outside the district and sessions court in G-11, which killed 12 people and injured 36. Officials say the new tagging requirement is part of broader efforts to enhance security across the capital.
