Quick facts

  • The blank Form 1A PDF is on parivahan.gov.in, under the forms section of the Central Motor Vehicles Rules.
  • The completed form is signed by a registered medical practitioner, as Rule 5 of the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989 requires.
  • A valid completed form has your details, the examination findings, the doctor's signature and name, registration details and the date.
  • Sarathi sometimes says: "Offline medical certificate Form1A, uploading is not allowed. Please get an online medical certificate in Form-1A from empaneled doctor." That application needs the form entered online by a doctor.
  • Our fee is from ₹999, and it includes the signed Form 1A.

Safety note

The doctor decides after the call. If you need an in-person check, they will tell you.

Read the steps + FAQs below. Written for patients, not policy documents.

What you'll need

Keep these details ready, complete submissions reduce delays.

  • Your name exactly as on your driving licence or Sarathi application.
  • Your driving licence number and date of birth.
  • Your application number on Sarathi, if you have started one.
  • Your glasses or a prescription photo if you wear them.

How it works

A simple flow that feels like a modern healthcare app, not a confusing form.

1

Blank form from Parivahan

Open parivahan.gov.in and look for Form 1A in the forms section, or on your state transport site. It is only a format. The doctor fills in the medical part.

2

Signed form from a doctor

Visit a registered doctor in person, or apply online. Either way the doctor must examine you before signing. A downloaded form with no examination is not a valid certificate.

3

Check the PDF

Before you upload, check that your name, date of birth, the doctor's signature and name, registration details and the date are all there and readable.

4

Upload on Sarathi

Choose your state, Driving Licence related services, then your service. Fill the form, upload documents including Form 1A, pay the fee and book a slot if the RTO asks for one.

Trust, legitimacy & privacy

Clear answers to the questions people have before paying.

Do not edit a signed PDF

Any change to a signed PDF can make it invalid. If a detail is wrong, ask for a corrected one instead of editing it.

Free templates are not certificates

Sites that offer a ready filled Form 1A with no doctor are not legitimate. A real Form 1A always follows an examination.

Keep a copy

Save the PDF with a clear name, such as Form1A-YourName-Date.pdf. You may need it again at the RTO.

Frequently Asked Questions

Written in plain language to reduce doubts.

Where can I download the medical certificate Form 1A PDF?
From parivahan.gov.in, in the forms section, or from your state transport department site. That gives you the blank format. It becomes a certificate only after a registered doctor examines you and signs it.
Can I download a filled Form 1A without seeing a doctor?
No. Form 1A is a medical certificate under Rule 5 of the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989. It needs a registered medical practitioner. A form with no examination is not valid.
What does the Parivahan Form 1A PDF contain?
It has the applicant's details and declaration, then the doctor's findings on vision, colour vision, hearing and health, and the doctor's signature. Our how-to-fill guide goes through it.
Can I upload a scanned Form 1A on Sarathi?
Often yes. Sometimes Sarathi shows "Offline medical certificate Form1A, uploading is not allowed." Then the doctor must enter Form 1A online against your application. See our fix page.
How do I get the Form 1A PDF after my consultation with you?
Depending on your state, our doctor submits Form 1A on Sarathi against your application number, or sends you the signed PDF sized for Sarathi's upload with the steps to follow.
The PDF is too large to upload. What should I do?
Compress it with a reputable tool and keep the text readable. Do not re-scan it or change anything on it. PDFs we send are already sized for Sarathi.
