Pakistan national customs-duty references — FY 2026–27

These eight-digit PCT codes share the prefix 870490. The FBR schedule reports the base customs duty (CD), separately from the historical WITS average above. Checked 2026-09-14; no line-level effective date is inferred.

CD is not the total import charge. Additional customs duty, regulatory duty, taxes, trade remedies, origin treatment and conditional concessions require separate checks.

Description excerpts are provided for navigation. Read the linked PDF page, headings and continuation text for the full product scope. A listed duty does not establish import permission.

Additional duties and conditional concessions — rules from July 2026

Reviewed 2026-09-15. SRO 1063/2026 (additional customs duty, ACD) and SRO 1064/2026 (regulatory duty, RD) take effect on 2026-07-01. The references below are separate from base CD. They do not calculate the amount due for your shipment.

Sales tax and advance income tax references

Checked 2026-09-22. These taxes require separate review of exemptions, schedules, importer status and valuation. A code mention is navigation only; no rate or eligibility is assigned.

Check ACD exemptions and import schemes first

Paragraph 3 of SRO 1063 lists exemptions for manufacturing or production machinery in chapters 84–85, chapter 99 imports, qualifying Fifth Schedule imports, baggage, temporary imports and specified schemes. Merely belonging to a chapter or finding a code in the Fifth Schedule does not establish eligibility.

The Fifth Schedule ACD exemption excludes Part I entries 30, 33 and 35, and Part III entries 102, 111, 116 (except xvi), 117 and 118. Imports under SROs 655/2006 and 656/2006 have a separate 2% rule; check the exemptions and vehicle provisions before applying it.

Vehicles require their assembly condition and engine capacity: paragraph 1(ii)(b)(ii) specifies 2% for certain CKD vehicles; paragraph 3(x) exempts specified CKD vehicles up to 1,000cc and CBU vehicles up to 850cc. Paragraph 3(xi) lists three exact PCT exemptions. Check the complete scheme conditions. ACD uses the customs value determined under sections 25 or 25A.

ACD exceptions and valuation — SRO 1063, page 2

Regulatory duty needs product and import details

The 687 numbered SRO 1064 table entries have been reviewed. Matched references below retain heading rules, product exclusions and value bands. A code may have several treatments. Unmatched printed codes require classification review; absence of a matched rule is not a confirmed zero. Its paragraphs 2–5 also cover conditional exemptions, home-appliance CKD/SKD kits, certain goods imported from Afghanistan and valuation of protected vehicles.

The Fifth Schedule RD exemption has different exceptions from ACD: Part I entries 22 and 23(v), and Part III entries 99, 100, 102, 116(iv), 116(xvi) and 146. Check each levy separately.

RD exemptions also cover the qualifying regimes in paragraph 2: SRO 678/2004, chapter 99, temporary imports under SRO 492/2009, specified seamless-pipe manufacturing inputs, rubber apron and cots, eligible new-entrant vehicle imports and local auto-parts inputs. The complete conditions remain controlling.

Product-only entry 686: 20%. Plums (allocha); no PCT code is specified in this entry. The source says “respective headings”; no national code has been assigned automatically. Read entry 686

Product-only entry 687: PKR 2,400 per minute. Cinematographic film; no PCT code is specified in this entry. The source says “respective headings”; no national code has been assigned automatically. Read entry 687

Concessions depend on eligibility

Fifth Schedule entries can require a specified use, importer, certification, quota, date or other conditions. Read the Part notes, table description and conditions, including text continued on later pages. A code occurrence is a place to review, not an exemption decision. The page links are a partial navigation index; no match does not mean no concession or no RD.
