Sound Familiar?
Are You Facing These Problems?
You registered with FBR and were told it does not cover services

Why It Matters
Why Provincial Registration Is Separate
In Pakistan, sales tax on services is administered by the provinces, not FBR. Each province has its own authority — PRA in Punjab, SRB in Sindh, KPRA in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and BRA in Balochistan — and its own registration.
The Right Authority
PRA, SRB, KPRA or BRA — we confirm which applies.
Supply Services Legally
Service businesses commonly need provincial registration.
Satisfy Corporate Clients
Clients often require it before engaging you.
Multi-Province Operations
Operating across provinces can mean multiple registrations.
Reduce Exposure
Unregistered service supply can create liability.
Duties Explained
Registration means periodic returns. We say so first.

Common Mistakes We See
Assuming FBR covers services
It generally does not. Service businesses frequently need provincial registration instead — or as well.
Registering in the wrong province
It follows where the service is supplied, not just where you live.
Ignoring multi-province exposure
Supplying across provinces can mean more than one registration and more than one return.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which authority do I register with?
It depends on where you supply services: PRA for Punjab, SRB for Sindh, KPRA for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, BRA for Balochistan. We confirm based on your actual operations rather than your address alone.
Why is this not handled by FBR?
Sales tax on services is administered by the provinces in Pakistan. FBR generally handles federal sales tax on goods. They are genuinely separate systems with separate registrations.
Do I need both federal and provincial?
Some businesses do — typically those supplying both goods and services. Many need only one. We review which applies before you pay for anything.
What if I work across several provinces?
You may need to register in more than one. Each registration is $125 and each brings its own return-filing obligation. We map it out before you commit.
Are government fees included?
No. Our fee is $125 per province. Government fees and third-party charges are separate where applicable.
Do rules differ between provinces?
Yes — rates, requirements and procedures differ by province and change over time. That is precisely why we confirm rather than assume.
