SALARIED INCOME TAX · SINCE 2015

Salaried? File Your Tax Return, Become a Filer, and Save Money.

Q: Is it mandatory for salaried employees to file income tax return in Pakistan?

Yes, if your annual salary exceeds PKR 600,000 (PKR 50,000/month) you are required by law to file an income tax return with FBR. Filing also makes you an Active Taxpayer (filer), which reduces withholding tax on vehicles, property, and bank transactions.

Q: What documents does a salaried person need to file a tax return?

You need your CNIC, employer tax certificate (salary certificate showing deductions), bank account IBAN, and NTN. If you have other income sources — property, bank profit — bring those details too.

Q: My employer already deducts tax — do I still need to file a return?

Yes. Employer WHT deduction does not replace the annual return. You must still file to appear on the Active Taxpayer List (ATL). Without filing, you are treated as a non-filer for all other transactions.

FBR tax return filing, NTN registration, filer status, and refund claims for salaried employees, all in one place and fully online, with no documents to courier.

Your Employer Deducts Tax. Why Do You Still Need to File a Return?

Many people assume that because their employer deducts tax, they have nothing to do. Under FBR rules, WHT deduction and the annual return are two separate things.

Non-Filer Problems

Double WHT on vehicle purchase
Double WHT on property buy/sell
Higher tax on bank profit & cash withdrawals
FBR notices for non-filing
No chance to claim excess tax back

Filer Benefits

Lower WHT on cars, property, banking
Appear on FBR Active Taxpayer List
Claim refund on excess salary tax deducted
Easier SECP / loan / visa applications
Peace of mind — FBR notices avoided

Yes, if your annual salary exceeds PKR 600,000 you are required by law to file an income tax return with FBR. Filing also makes you an Active Taxpayer (filer), which reduces withholding tax on vehicles, property, and bank transactions.

My employer already deducts tax — do I still need to file a return?

Yes. Employer tax deduction does not replace the annual return. You must still file your return to appear on the Active Taxpayer List (ATL). Without filing, you are treated as a non-filer for all other transactions including vehicle and property purchases.

What documents does a salaried person need to file a tax return?

You need your CNIC, employer tax certificate showing deductions, bank account IBAN, and NTN (we register it if you don’t have one). If you have other income sources — rental, bank profit — bring those details too.

What is FirsTax fee for salaried income tax return?

Salaried income tax return filing costs PKR 5,000. NTN + Return bundle is PKR 5,000. Fee is confirmed before work starts — no hidden charges ever.

What is the deadline for filing income tax return in Pakistan?

The standard deadline for individual tax returns is September 30 each year. Late filing attracts a penalty of PKR 1,000 per month of delay, so it is best to file on time.

What are the benefits of becoming a filer in Pakistan?

Filers pay lower withholding tax on vehicle purchases, property transactions, bank profit, and cash withdrawals. Non-filers pay double WHT on vehicle registration and property purchase — becoming a filer immediately saves you money.

Can I get a refund if my employer deducted too much tax?

Yes. If your employer deducted more tax than your actual liability, you can claim a refund from FBR. FirsTax calculates the exact refundable amount and files the refund application on your behalf.

What if I have not filed for multiple years?

FirsTax can back-file up to 5 previous tax years. Back-filing fee is PKR 2,000 per additional year. We handle calculation, filing, and FBR penalty minimisation.
