Punjab Driving License Service Goes Down. Residents across Punjab are facing difficulties accessing driving licence services as the province’s official online system has gone down. The unexpected outage has caused delays for people trying to apply for new licences, renew existing licences, or check the status of their applications.
The issue was first reported on December 2, 2025, and remains unresolved at the time of publishing. No official explanation has been released yet, leaving users unsure about the cause of the disruption or when the service will be restored.
DLIMS Punjab Website Not Working
The affected platform is DLIMS Punjab (Driving License Issuance Management System), the official digital portal used by millions of citizens. The DLIMS website usually allows users to:
- Apply for a learner’s driving licence
- Renew or upgrade their licence
- Check licence status online
- Track the progress of applications
- Download digital e-licenses
- Verify licence details
With the website temporarily offline, these services are unavailable, forcing users to either wait or visit local licensing centres for urgent needs.
No Official Statement Yet
So far, the Punjab authorities have not issued any clarification regarding:
- The cause of the outage
- Expected restoration time
- Whether the system is under maintenance or facing a technical failure
This lack of communication has left many citizens concerned, especially those who rely on the portal for time-sensitive licensing tasks.
Impact on Applicants
The downtime is particularly challenging for:
- New applicants waiting for their learner’s licence
- Drivers who need urgent licence renewals
- Users tracking their application progress
- Professionals requiring licence verification for employment
Until DLIMS comes back online, applicants may experience delays in receiving their driving licences.
Conclusion
The temporary outage of the DLIMS Punjab driving licence portal has disrupted essential online services for thousands of users. Since no official update has been provided, residents are advised to wait for the system to be restored or visit their nearest licensing centre if the matter is urgent.
