ISLAMABAD: Following failure of the FBR to integrate sales taxpayers, Pakistan Tax Bar Association (PTBA) has asked the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) to extend the deadline up to June 30, 2025 for corporate sales taxpayers to electronically integrate with the FBR’s system.
The deadline of integration has been expired on June 1, 2025 for the corporate sales taxpayers.
According to a letter of the PTBA to FBR Chairman, Pakistan Tax Bar, fully support the government’s documentation initiative aimed at enhancing transparency and documentation of the supply chain through implementation of electronically integrate their hardware and software with Boards computerized system (E-invoicing) through license integrator or PRAL under SRO 709(1)/2025 dated 22nd April, 2025.
The corporate and individual tax filers have to integrate by May 1, 2025 and June 1, 2025 and subsequently deadline was extended for corporate and individual tax filers to June 1, 2025 and July 1, 2025 respectively. However, despite these timely efforts, it remains practically impossible for significant number of corporate entities to integrate with Board’s computerized system through license integrator or PRAL within specified time and manner.
It has received several representations from member bars across the country indicating that the deadline for corporate tax filers is going to be expired on June 1, 2025. In these current circumstances, it seems impossible to get the integrated process completed by the corporate tax filers on the due date. Therefore, in the interest of documentation and proper implementation for the integration of supply chain, the PTBA has recommended that the deadline for the corporate tax filers to integrate has to be extended till June 30, 2025.
