06 Your exact amount
Why your iPhone 14 Plus PTA tax may differ
Your PSID can differ from this page for three reasons.
The value Customs uses
We use the Customs value for a new iPhone 14 Plus. If your invoice is higher, Customs uses the higher value. Used phones are valued under a separate Customs ruling and can be lower.
The dollar rate
Customs converts the value at FBR's notified rate on the day. Each Rs 1 change in the rate changes the iPhone 14 Plus tax by about Rs 188.
Your filer status
On CNIC, non-filers pay double income tax: Rs 11,500 more on the iPhone 14 Plus. Passport registration has no income tax.
| Dollar rate | Passport | CNIC (filer) |
|---|---|---|
| Rs 273 | Rs 72,982 | Rs 93,016 |
| Rs 278 (used on this page) | Rs 73,763 | Rs 93,953 |
| Rs 283 | Rs 74,545 | Rs 94,891 |
