The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Excise and Taxation Department has announced August 1, 2025, as the deadline to profile all non-custom paid (NCP) vehicles in Malakand Division and the tribal districts.
According to the official notice, excise officers must complete data collection before the deadline. Vehicles not profiled by then will face seizure and legal action.
Additional Secretary Mazhar Ali Shah said the profiling will include ownership, model, and value details. This data will be stored in a digital system and shared with police and local administration.
Vehicle owners must bring their NCP vehicles to the relevant Excise and Taxation Office along with their ID card and purchase receipt. The process takes about 5 to 10 minutes.
However, vehicles with tampered chassis numbers will not be profiled and may lead to action against the owner.
Excise official Muhammad Naeem confirmed there is no fee for the profiling. Once complete, a temporary number plate will be issued by the local police station.
Excise Minister Khaleeq-ur-Rehman clarified that no taxes will be imposed on these vehicles. He said customs duty is a federal matter and the profiling decision was taken by the Apex Committee to keep proper records and improve oversight of such vehicles.
