The estimated PTA tax on the Galaxy S25 128GB is PKR 69,928 on a passport and PKR 89,571 on a CNIC. FBR has not published a customs value for the Galaxy S25, so this is a projection. FBR valued the Galaxy S23 and Z Fold5 generation at 80% of its US launch price, and the same share of the Galaxy S25's launch price is used here.
Projected from the launch price; FBR has not valued this phone yet. The DIRBS payment slip is the figure that counts.

Where the numbers come from
The tax is charged on a customs value that FBR fixes for each model, and it has not fixed one for the Galaxy S25. We project it: FBR valued the Galaxy S23 and Z Fold5 generation at 80% of its US launch price, so we take the same share of this phone's launch price (US$800 to US$860). If FBR values it differently, the tax will differ in step.
The rates are the ones in force since 1 July 2026: regulatory duty by value band, sales tax of 18% up to a value of US$500 and 25% above it, the handset levy and, on a CNIC, advance income tax and a 10% fine. Our guide to what PTA tax is made of sets out each one with its source.
