New PTA Taxes on iPhone 15 Pro & Pro Max (Updated May 2024)
iPhone 15 Pro variants are the most expensive Apple smartphones in the market right now. Many Pakistanis also dream of purchasing a high-end smartphone. However, the problem is that not only do they have to pay the retail price of the phone but also hefty PTA tax for its registration in Pakistan. The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has set the following taxes for iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max.

As evident, the PTA Taxes on Apple iPhone 15 pro and 15 pro max are pretty high. Therefore, we suggest FBR reconsider the tax rates on all smartphones. Rather than targeting the end users, they should impose such taxes on those who import mobile devices for commercial purposes and exempt those who import mobile devices for personal use.
