Starting rate is the interbank close on 2026-09-23. Change it to the rate on the day you register. Only sales tax uses it.

A passport within 60 days of arrival does not pay section 148 income tax. A CNIC, or a passport after 60 days, does. Any further CNIC fine is not in this estimate.

Filer status changes the income-tax line only. Duty, sales tax, and the handset levy stay the same.

Enter the C&F value in US dollars. TaxGuide applies regulatory duty, sales tax, the handset levy, and section 148 income tax from the published 2026-27 schedule. The figure is an estimate. The amount you pay is the PSID from DIRBS.

Questions

What is PTA tax in Pakistan?

PTA tax is the name people use for the duty and taxes on a mobile phone registered through DIRBS. PTA runs the registration system. FBR assesses the amount and collects it through a Payment Slip ID.

Is this the amount I should pay?

No. This page is an estimate from the published schedule and the dollar rate you enter. Pay the PSID amount shown on dirbs.pta.gov.pk after you submit the IMEI.

How do I check PTA tax on my phone?

Dial *#06# and note every 15-digit IMEI. Send each IMEI by SMS to 8484, or check it at dvs.pta.gov.pk. A GSMA Valid reply means the phone still needs registration.

Does filer status change the whole bill?

No. Filer status changes the section 148 income-tax line only. Regulatory duty, sales tax, and the handset levy stay the same.
