Chhattisgarh Driving Licence PVC Card

This Chhattisgarh driving licence PVC card is a sturdy PVC copy of your licence, printed from your PDF or photos. Each card costs ₹50 and the print takes 1 day.

## Old booklet, smart card or PDF: one card at the end

A Chhattisgarh driving licence PVC card suits drivers in Raipur, Bilaspur, Bhilai, Durg, Korba and Raigarh who may be holding different generations of licence: an older booklet, a newer card, or just a digital file. Chhattisgarh's own transport site speaks about converting a licence to a smart card and about new-format licences. This page works at the other end of the process. Once you have a readable licence file, it prints that file on a PVC card for your wallet.

## The card in the picture

The card shown here was drawn to demonstrate the layout. Its holder, photo and licence number are made up. Your order is printed from your upload only.

## What each order includes

• A PVC card in bank-card size, 85.6 by 54 mm, with rounded corners.
• The front and back, printed in colour.
• ₹50 a card, from 1 to 10 cards.
• Free delivery above ₹999.

## What the Chhattisgarh Transport Department's site says

The Chhattisgarh Transport Department site at cgtransport.gov.in links to Sarathi 4.0, which it describes as the national portal for driving licences. It lists the documents needed to convert a driving licence to a smart card, and it carries a banner about issuing new-format licences from home with Aadhaar authentication. It also has a link to check driving licence details. If your licence needs converting or renewing, that is a job for the department. Our PVC card begins after that step.

## Convert first, then print

If you still carry an older licence format, ask the department about conversion first. After it is done, download the new file and print from it. A card printed from an old file will show the old layout. The conversion documents are listed on the department site, so read that list before you visit.

## Where to get your licence file

• Sarathi: select Chhattisgarh and look in the Driving Licence menu.
• DigiLocker: download the issued licence.
• The check driving licence details link on the department site, to confirm what is on record.
• A good photograph of each side of the card.

## Check what is on record

Before you print, you may want to confirm that the details on your file match the record. The department's link for checking driving licence details is meant for that. Compare the name, date of birth and licence number with your card. If they differ, sort that out with the transport office.

## Chhattisgarh licence numbers

Chhattisgarh licence numbers open with CG, then the RTO code, the year and a serial. If yours is from another state, use that state's page or start at the general PVC driving licence card order online page.

## Ordering a Chhattisgarh driving licence PVC card

For anyone who wants to order pvc driving licence cards here, there are four steps.

• Choose the number of cards.
• Add the PDF, or one JPG or PNG per side; each can reach 50 MB.
• Enter the PDF password if the file is locked.
• Pay online.

## After you order

A person at our end looks at the file. If it will not open, we may phone you before printing. The card prints in 1 day and goes out flat. It reaches you in 5 to 8 days, in Raipur or a smaller town.

## Why a PVC copy still makes sense after a smart card

A smart card is a good document, but it is still carried in a wallet and still wears. If you hold one, a PVC copy gives you a second card for daily use, so the first can stay at home. If you are about to convert, finish the conversion, download the new file and then print. In both cases the Chhattisgarh driving licence PVC card on this page is a copy of what the licence shows, front and back, and nothing more. It does not change your record, and it does not speed up any department process.

## Families and small businesses

If a household has several drivers, upload one file for each, set the quantity, and place one order. A small business with delivery staff can do the same, with each driver's permission. Name the files with the holder's name, so front and back stay together.

## Looking after the card

Use a card holder, wipe with a soft cloth and keep the card out of the heat. If it is lost, order again from the file for ₹50.

## Keep the PDF

After ordering, keep the licence PDF. The guide to downloading a driving licence from DigiLocker shows how to get a clean one.

## A private print

GiftKida copies your own licence onto PVC. The Chhattisgarh Transport Department has not issued this card, and it cannot stand in for the licence or for a smart card from the department. We never change a detail and never ask for a password or an OTP.
