Who Can Apply for a Pesticide Dealer Licence in Punjab

Applications are open for individuals wishing to start a pesticide dealership in Punjab.

Agricultural graduates are exempt from the training requirement, though they still need to meet other licensing conditions, the official notice states.

Prospective applicants should have their identification and business paperwork ready.

Depending on the specific requirements, this may include a CNIC, educational certificates, photographs, and details of the business premises.
