Sales Tax on Services in Pakistan: Complete Comparison of PRA, SRB, KPRA & BRA
Unlike federal GST on physical manufactured goods (collected by the FBR), sales tax on services in Pakistan is devolved to the provinces under the 18th Constitutional Amendment. Operating a digital agency, software house, or consultancy requires navigating different provincial tax jurisdictions.
