- DPL Service · Multan, South Punjab
DPL License Multan, South Punjab's Agro-Industrial Hub
Multan sits at the centre of Pakistan’s cotton belt, and the pesticide formulators, fertilizer plants, ginning factories and textile mills around it store more solvents and fuel than almost any other region of Punjab. NEPSA has a regional office in Multan, and we handle DPL licences across Multan, Khanewal, Vehari, Lodhran and the wider South Punjab region.

Multan-Specific Considerations
- Pesticide solvents: xylene and similar solvents are Class A or B petroleum and need a licence
- MDA clearance: Multan Development Authority approval where the site falls in its area
- Seasonal stock: stock rises before the cotton season, so licensed quantities must cover the peak
How the DPL Process Works in Multan
A DPL license in Multan is issued under the same federal Petroleum Act 1934 as anywhere in Pakistan, and the supporting approvals come from Punjab. What makes Multan different is the stock itself: much of it is solvent used to make pesticides, and much of it moves in seasonal peaks.
What a Multan application needs
- Punjab EPA environmental NOC, which for pesticide formulation sites gets a closer look at waste and spill control.
- Civil Defence Punjab fire safety NOC for the godown, tanks or forecourt.
- MDA clearance where the site is inside Multan Development Authority jurisdiction.
- District administration NOC with an attested site and location plan.
- Storage plan drawn to NEPSA specification, showing every product and its maximum quantity.
Which Multan industries we file for
Pesticide formulators blend active ingredients with solvents such as xylene, which flashes at about 27°C and is Class B petroleum, so even a modest formulation unit passes the licence-free limit. Agrochemical distributors keep finished pesticides in drums and cans and usually need a Form M godown. Fertilizer, chemical and textile plants hold diesel and furnace oil in bulk tanks for boilers and generators. Petrol pump developers on the M-4, M-5 and the main roads out of Multan need a Form K licence with the local NOCs. Check your own products in our petroleum Class A, B and C guide.
Renewals in Multan
A DPL expires on 31 December and must be renewed before 1 December. The site is checked again at renewal, and South Punjab stock often changes from season to season, so the product list must be updated first. Multan clients on our DPL renewal tracking are ready for that check before the inspector arrives.
