Nepal Driving License Print Check Online 2026

You can check your smart license print status (स्मार्ट लाइसेन्स प्रिन्ट चेक) in a few simple steps.

1. Find your driving license number on your revenue payment receipt, application or old driving license.
2. Enter the complete license number in the checker above.
3. Check the number carefully, including any hyphens.
4. Click Check Status.
5. If a matching record appears, check the name, transport office, date and source PDF.
6. Contact your transport office to confirm whether your card is available for collection.

Your search may return a matching record or show that no record was found.

You can also check your smart driving license print status through the official Department of Transport Management (DoTM) website.

DoTM provides a License Print Check option where you can check whether your driving license has been printed.

1. Open the DoTM Online Driving License System.
2. Select License Print Check.
3. Enter the details requested by the official portal, such as your Application ID.
4. Submit the details to check the available license print information.

DoTM also publishes printed driving license lists in PDF format for different offices or regions. If your license is included in one of these lists, you may need to open the relevant PDF and manually search for your details.

How to Check Smart Card Driving License Details?

If you only want to verify your existing smart-card driving license details, use the separate Smart-Card License Search.

Enter your date of birth in YYYY-MM-DD format, driving license number, and captcha code. Then submit the form to view the available license details.

Our database brings regular and urgent government license lists together so you can search without opening individual PDF files.

The current coverage is:

The database preparation date is not the same as the government printing date. Although the current database was prepared in October 2026, the latest dated urgent record in this collection is from June 2026. As the government publishes new records, we will update our system.

When Does DoTM Publish New License Lists?

There is no fixed nationwide publication schedule. Based on the government files used to prepare our current database, the following updates are represented.

Nepal has separate online driving license portals for its seven provinces. The official EDLVRS directory lets applicants select the relevant province and access its services.

If your license number is not found in our database, check your provincial portal.

These portals provide provincial driving license services. However, their records and services may differ from the central PDF lists used by our checker.

Which Transport Offices Are Covered?

The following table shows the transport office locations represented in our current collection of government PDFs.

Office coverage is not the same in every province. Some offices may have fewer records or may publish their information separately.

For example, applicants from Butwal and Nepalgunj may not find all their records in our current collection. They should also check their provincial portal or contact their issuing office.

Some transport offices maintain separate printed-license searches and collection notices. These include:

• Surkhet Transport Management Office
• Jhapa Transport Management Office
• Radheradhe, Bhaktapur Transport Management Office

Regular license lists usually contain larger collections of printed or dispatched license records associated with transport offices. You can search these records using your driving license number.

Urgent license lists contain records published under urgent printing or distribution arrangements.

Urgent printing is also not available to every applicant. The government and relevant transport office determine the requirements.

Once your license appears in a printed list, the next step is to confirm that your transport office has received the physical card.

Follow these steps before visiting your office.

1. Check your driving license print status and save the result.
2. Note your license number, transport office and any available Received ID or bundle number.
3. Contact your transport office and ask whether your card has arrived.
4. Confirm which original documents you need to bring.
5. Visit the relevant office and follow its collection procedure.

Some offices use token systems to manage collection queues. If your office requires a token, ask how and when you can obtain one.

For example, an official Surkhet Transport Management Office collection notice instructed eligible applicants to bring their original citizenship document and revenue receipt to collect their smart cards. Requirements may differ at other offices.

A bundle number helps a transport office identify or locate a group of printed driving license cards during sorting and distribution.

Some office systems show a bundle number when you search for your printed license. If yours is available, save it or take a screenshot before visiting the office.

However, not every transport office publishes bundle numbers, and not every government PDF contains them. Our checker does not currently show a bundle number or Received ID. Check your issuing office's portal or collection notice for these details.

These are some common problems applicants face after passing their driving trial, paying revenue or waiting for their smart cards.

Apart from our checker, you can use official government services to look up your driving license information.
