Information on Taxes & Duties:

You can provide a self-estimate for taxes and duties upon arrival using this below information.

The Federal Bereau of Revenue for Pakistan issued a table which can assist receivers of cargo in obtaining the amounts they’re due to pay to customs before arrival.

The first step toward your self-estimate is calculating the CIF Value. The CIF Value is declared to customs and this figure is what the payable taxes and duties is calculated on.

The CIF Value is:

C – Commercial Value of Cargo

I – Premium Cost if Marine Insurance is taken out

F – Freight Cost

You combine the above together to come out with a total value known as the CIF Value.

Once obtained, the below table will be used as an indication to show you what percentage of the CIF Value will be paid as your taxes and duties.

Now you match up the CC of the vehicle with the right category above.

Below is an example of how to calculate the estimated taxes and duties:

I have a 800cc vehicle

My CIF Value is 1,700.00 GBP

Therefore I would have to pay 1,241.00 GBP in taxes and duties using the above information extracted from the table. (73% of the CIF).

Please Note, all the above is to produce an estimate of how much you will have to pay please do not take these as exact figures with extraneous variables such as rates of exchange making the amount payable subject to change upon arrival.
