Vehicle and RTO calculator

Which documents do I need to carry?

Check what must be valid and current for your vehicle, and what is accepted digitally.

Nothing here asks for your licence number

What people get wrong about this

The commonest error is carrying original paperwork in the glovebox. Digital copies in DigiLocker or mParivahan have the same legal standing at a roadside check, and originals in the vehicle are lost with the vehicle.

The second is treating the pollution certificate as an afterthought. It has the shortest validity of anything in the list, so it is the document most likely to have quietly expired.

This checker is about documents, not fees

Road tax and registration fees are a different question, covered in the RTO fee calculator, including road tax for the states verified so far. Nothing here duplicates that, since a document being valid says nothing about what it cost.
