- Mandatory E-Invoicing Implementation: As of February 3, 2025, all registered persons in Pakistan are required to integrate their sales tax invoicing systems with the Federal Board of Revenue’s (FBR) computerized system, as per the amendments to the Sales Tax Rules, 2006, issued on January 29, 2025.
- Integration Requirements: Businesses must utilize approved hardware and software to generate digital invoices with QR codes and transmit transaction data to the FBR in real time. They must also ensure secure data storage and maintain audit logs, with penalties for non-compliance.
- Licensing and Data Management: Only licensed integrators, such as Pakistan Revenue Automation (Pvt) Limited, can facilitate the integration process. The system must support both online and offline sales, with provisions for uploading offline invoices within 24 hours after system restoration, and data must be securely stored for at least six years for audit purposes.
