NTN Registration

The National Tax Number (NTN) is required for filing taxes in Pakistan. If you are a salaried person then your employer can generate National Tax Number (NTN) from Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) for you.

If you are liable to pay any of the following taxes: income tax, property tax or sales tax in Pakistan then you must have a National Tax Number (NTN) authorized by the FBR. This will make you a registered, tax filer in the country. Being a tax filer has some legal advantages such that, you have to pay less vehicle token tax, less tax rate on banking transactions, property transactions, etc. among others contrary to a non-tax filer. Since, National Tax Number (NTN) is required for filing taxes in Pakistan, then if you are a business owner, you will have to register for it yourself, but if you are a salaried employee then your employer can generate National Tax Number (NTN) it for you from Federal Board of Revenue (FBR). However, you have to file the tax returns in FBR annually irrespective of your earnings or profits.
