FAQ

Common questions

I run a services business in Lahore — FBR, PRA, or both?
Almost certainly both: income tax federally through FBR, and services sales tax through PRA if your services are taxable. We register, file, and keep both calendars so neither surprises you.
Which RTO has jurisdiction over my case?
Jurisdiction follows your registered address and taxpayer category. It matters when notices arrive — responses go to the right office, in the right format, on time. We handle that routing.
I'm overseas with property in Punjab — why file?
ATL status cuts your withholding on property transactions roughly in half versus non-filer rates. One annual return (AED 110 salaried) typically pays for itself many times over on a single transaction.
