The attack in the town of Darra Adam Khel appeared to be targeted at members of a pro-government militia created to fight Taliban militants.
No group immediately claimed responsibility, but the Pakistani Taliban have staged similar attacks in the tribal region of Darra Adam Khel to punish elders for backing security forces in offensives against militants.
Up to 25 people were injured and the death toll is expected to rise.
The explosives-laden car was parked near the office of one of the peace committees that have been formed by local elders trying to rid the area of militants.
It was unclear how many people were in the office at the time, but regional government administrator Fakhruddin Khan said those killed included tribal elders and passers-by.
40 people also were wounded and the attack destroyed 35 shops and eight vehicles.
The dead and injured, including some in critical condition, had been transported to hospitals in the northwestern city of Peshawar.
