Common questions

How do I check if I am on the Active Taxpayer List?

Use the ATL search on the FBR website, or SMS "ATL (space) CNIC number" to 9966. The list is refreshed every year on 1 March.

Can I claim the withholding tax back?

Tax collected under sections 231B and 234 is adjustable: you deduct it from your liability in the annual income tax return. Keep the Excise receipt as proof.
