PTA Mobile Tax Calculator Pakistan
This tool estimates the PTA/DIRBS tax to register an imported phone in Pakistan on a passport vs a CNIC. It is an estimate for planning, not an official assessment — the actual registration and payment are handled through the government DIRBS system, which sets the exact amount from FBR customs values for your device. Our value bands are unverified placeholders pending a confirmed FBR valuation ruling (last reviewed 28 August 2026).

Formula & how it works
PTA tax is banded by the device's assessed value:
- Value band = the phone's value mapped to a PTA slab
- Estimated tax = the slab amount for passport or CNIC
- Total imported cost = phone value + PTA tax
Example calculations
Example: a phone valued around PKR 224,000 (~$800) falls in the top PTA band, where the estimated tax is materially higher on CNIC than on passport. Enter your phone's value above to see both figures and the total landed cost.
