Apple iPhone 15, 15 Plus, 15 Pro & 15 Pro Max PTA Tax
PTA Tax on the All-New Apple iPhone 15 Series if you plan to import it to pakistan
Have you got any plans to get an Apple iPhone 15 Model from abroad and bring it back to Pakistan or courier it to your family? If YES, due to DIRBS, you’ll have to pay PTA tax in order to register it and be able to use it with your local SIM here in Pakistan after 2 months or your iPhone 15 series phone as good as it is, wouldn’t work with any local SIM in Pakistan. Then you’d have to try to use it without PTA Tax.
Here’s the PTA Tax on the Apple iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max that you would have to pay to register with PTA.
