Registration taxes and duties are collected by the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), not by PTA, which only provides technical assistance in the form of DIRBS to those wishing to register their mobile devices for use in Pakistan. PTA is a non-profit organisation. It is FBR’s responsibility to apply and deposit taxes and duties collected during the process.

It should be noted that an applicant can access the FBR link to learn about the most up-to-date taxes and duties related to the registration of various devices.
