The passport route applies when you register within 60 days of arriving in Pakistan. After that, or for a phone bought locally, the CNIC figure applies. Open the iPhone 17 Pro in the calculator to switch between them.
The tax is charged on a customs value that FBR fixes for each model, and it has not fixed one for the iPhone 17 Pro. We project it: FBR valued the iPhone 16 family at 88% of its US launch price, so we take the same share of this phone's launch price (US$1,099 to US$1,499). 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.
Common questions
How much is the PTA tax on the iPhone 17 Pro?
About PKR 100,577 on a passport and PKR 123,285 on a CNIC for the iPhone 17 Pro 256GB, at the rates in force since 1 July 2026. FBR has not published a customs value for the iPhone 17 Pro, so this is a projection. FBR valued the iPhone 16 family at 88% of its US launch price, and the same share of the iPhone 17 Pro's launch price is used here. The exact amount is the one PTA's DIRBS system issues for your IMEI.
Is the iPhone 17 Pro PTA tax lower on a passport?
Yes. On a passport, registered within 60 days of arriving in Pakistan, the estimate is PKR 100,577 for the iPhone 17 Pro 256GB. On a CNIC it is PKR 123,285, because advance income tax of PKR 11,500 is added and then a fine of 10% of the duty and taxes. A non-filer pays double the income tax, which takes it to PKR 135,935.
Has FBR set an official value for the iPhone 17 Pro?
Not that it has published. FBR fixes a customs value for each model in a valuation ruling, and its latest ruling for this brand does not include the iPhone 17 Pro. Until one is issued, every figure online for this phone is an estimate, including this one. Ours states its method: the share of US launch price that FBR used for the iPhone 16 family, applied to this phone.
How do I find the exact PTA tax on my iPhone 17 Pro?
Register it through PTA's DIRBS portal, or dial *8484# from a local SIM. You give your CNIC or passport number and the phone's IMEI, and the system issues a Payment Slip ID with the exact amount, which you pay at a bank. Reach DIRBS through pta.gov.pk rather than a search result, because imitation sites exist.
