Why we show our sources
Tax numbers change with every budget, and sites that copy each other spread old figures. We link each rate to the notification or Finance Act it came from, and say so when a figure is still being checked.

Frequently asked questions
What is PTA tax?
It is the duty and tax payable to register a mobile phone brought into Pakistan so it works on local networks. The amount depends on the phone’s customs value and whether you register with a passport or a CNIC.
How do I check if my phone is PTA approved?
Dial *#06# to get the IMEI and check it on the official PTA DIRBS portal. This site validates the IMEI format but cannot see registration status.
Are the results on this site official?
No. They are estimates built from published rates, each with a source and review date. Always confirm with PTA, FBR or a registered tax advisor.
How is salary tax calculated?
Monthly salary is annualised and taxed progressively by slab. Monthly tax is annual tax divided by 12.
