Frequently asked questions

How much is the PTA tax on Galaxy A05s in Pakistan?

The estimated PTA tax on a Galaxy A05s is around Rs 40,933 on CNIC and Rs 36,803 on passport (non-filer). Active tax filers pay around Rs 39,433. The final amount is set by PTA/FBR at DIRBS registration.

Is passport registration cheaper than CNIC for the Galaxy A05s?

Do filers pay less PTA tax on the Galaxy A05s?

Filers pay a lower withholding-tax component than non-filers, saving Rs 1,500 on the Galaxy A05s. Customs duty, regulatory duty and sales tax are the same for both.

Since 2026 FBR customs valuation rulings assess devices on a model-specific USD valuation, and the rupee duty is finalised at the DIRBS counter using the live bank rate on payment day.
