About the 2025-26 card

How FBR names and publishes its rate cards.

See all years

Which year does the "tax year 2026" card cover?

FBR names its cards by tax year, which ends on 30 June. Tax year 2026 is the financial year 2025-26: 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2026. The rates on this page took effect on 1 July 2025 under the Finance Act 2025.

Why is there a non-filer column?

The Tenth Schedule of the Income Tax Ordinance sets higher rates for people not on the Active Taxpayer List, usually double the filer rate. Where FBR lists no non-filer rate, the same rate applies to everyone.

What was the "late filer" rate?

Finance Act 2024 created a third category for people who filed late and were added to the ATL after the deadline, with property rates between the filer and non-filer rates. It applied in 2025-26; the Finance Act 2026 abolished it, so from 1 July 2026 there are only filers and non-filers.

Is this the official card?

The figures are FBR's, taken from its published withholding tax rate card spreadsheets and regrouped by section with plain-English headings. For the original wording, download FBR's PDF from the sources link at the foot of the page.

Which card applies now?

The current card is tax year 2027 (2026-27). Use the current withholding tax rates page for rates deducted today.
