PTA Mobile Tax Guide 2026
Calculating the PTA tax for imported mobile phones in Pakistan has been simplified through the DIRBS (Device Identification, Registration, and Blocking System). Our tool provides the most accurate and up-to-date tax rates for all major brands including Apple, Samsung, Google Pixel, Xiaomi, and more.
Passport vs CNIC
Travelers can avail a significant discount on mobile registration if processed within 60 days of arrival using their Passport. Standard local residents must use their CNIC and pay the regular import duty.
Important Notice
Failure to register your mobile device within 60 days of first use in Pakistan will result in the device being blocked from all local mobile networks.
