Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about income tax filing, ATL status, and compliance in Pakistan.

Any individual earning taxable income above the exemption threshold defined under the Income Tax Ordinance 2001 must file an income tax return with FBR. Filing may also be required if you own property, vehicles, operate a business, or maintain foreign assets.
The Active Taxpayer List (ATL) is published by FBR and includes names of taxpayers who have filed their income tax returns. Individuals listed on ATL enjoy lower withholding tax rates on various transactions.
A filer appears on ATL after submitting an annual return and benefits from reduced tax rates. A non-filer does not submit returns and is subject to higher withholding taxes on property, vehicles, banking, and other transactions.
The standard filing deadline is 30th September following the end of the tax year unless extended by FBR via official notification.
Non-filing may result in penalties, higher withholding tax deductions, restrictions on financial transactions, and possible legal action from FBR.
Income tax is calculated according to the applicable tax slabs for salaried individuals, business income, or AOP. You can use an updated tax calculator to estimate your liability based on current rates.
