Now you may have to pay tax even if you bring a single phone to Pakistan

[AHMED85]

A smart phone has became need of everyone.There is no luxury phone.

Yes I said don't need to carry an extraordinary smartphone while traveling in Pakistan.

You will give a normal tax for it.

If required then family members can get good mobile in Pakistan in the range of 200 to 300 US $.

Well we need to follow law & regulations, along this we have options to save our earning.

Because of corrupt people backhome we have to suffer ..my phon got blocked last month when I was there I try to register but I could not..

I have been there ... during my last trip i was shocked to figure out someone was using my Passport and NICOP number so i asked my friends who have NICOP cards they all were facing the same issue. Our nation is corrupt to core from businessmen to those govt officials who leaked such information.
When i went to PTA's office ..guess what there's only 1 PTA office in each province so people where there from Vihari and other far places just to register the same issue. I asked the guy at PTA's office who was using my profile since you guys can see such details he simply rejected.

Strange that NONE of us had to suffer when the so called 'corrupt' were ruling the country. Makes us wonder whether this is the bloody change we wanted; I mean those of us who use their brain.

Inquiries are going in Cabnit meetings..ik is going to punish them. Problem is that there are 12 entities holding our info regarding in n out from country. Everyone is blaming each other and that upset ik even more.. so ik is going harder now.. there are big heads in FIA and nadra going to be rol

Not sure what is PTA upto,I have came to Pakistan for 10 days and was told that my personal phone wouldn't be blocked because I'm visiting the country for less than a month and still they have blocked it.From now onwards it would be an extra headache every expat would have to go through on visiting Pakistan

Well these people are making us suffer for their Incompetency and Corruption. Simple as that.

On phone worth 200 to 300 USD you have to pay tax around 100 to 200 USD.

 

[H!TchHiker]

This is very good...It should be taxed..I think expats are working for there country so must serve it as government needs taxes..There should be taxed on expats income also...this will help generate a good revenue for government..

What utter bakwas. They can shove thier phones where the sun doesn't shine and set them to vibrate.

 

[Kakaspai]

Chor chori sy jaye hera pheri sy na jaye.People will find other means to bring thesephones

Oh dear you can not get me.

I said you can get good mobile from Pakistani market with 200 or 300 $.

I don't think a Pakistani living abroad take this announcement as serious.

Pakistani living abroad are mature enough in this regard.

It will be big problem for those who carry mobile for sale in Pakistan.

If you wanna gift, or give mobile to your relatives then Pakistani markets are open for service.

 

[JonAsad]

I would love to contribute in naya Pakistan when i visit Pakistan next week.
I will pay the tax happily..

So if i am coming to Pakistan,the first thing i have to do is purchase a mobilebecause incompetent authorities are unable to stop id theft.

Pakistan is not reached at technological edge.

Yes competent authority is also questionable.

But who will listen your point of view. ?

So if you wanna come in Pakistan then follow rules or use alternative options otherwise you will be in trouble.

Unkind law could be challenged in court, but Pakistan .....?

Pakistan Zindabad

You are too innocent my friend. IK is quite possibly even more corrupt and insincere than Nawaz and Zardari. It is just that the powers that are supporting IK make him appear to 'not be as bad as Nawaz or Zardari'. How can anyone forget Aleema Khan's billions, earned from sewing machines!!!
