About the PTA Tax Calculator Pakistan 2026

Estimate the PTA registration tax payable on a mobile phone brought into Pakistan. Pick a brand and model from the built-in device list, or enter an assessed USD value for a variant that is not listed. The calculator matches the value to the applicable PTA slab and shows the Passport and CNIC amounts together, since registering on a passport within the allowed window is usually the cheaper route.

Common questions

How is PTA mobile tax calculated?

PTA registration tax is charged on value slabs expressed in US dollars, not as a single percentage. The assessed value of the device determines the slab, and each slab carries a different fixed amount depending on whether you register on a passport or a CNIC.

Is PTA tax lower on passport or CNIC?

Passport registration is normally cheaper. It is available to travellers registering a device within the permitted period after arrival; outside that window CNIC registration applies, at the higher amount shown alongside it in the result.

My exact model is not in the list. What do I do?

Enter the assessed USD value in the custom value field. The slab, and therefore the tax, is driven by value rather than by the model name, so any device can be estimated this way.

Is this the final amount I will pay?

No. Treat it as a planning estimate. Verify the IMEI and the exact payable amount through the official PTA DIRBS system or by sending the IMEI to 8484 before making any payment.
