FBR Valuation Ruling 2035/2026 • Updated Jan 2026

FBR Used Phone Values 2026: PTA Tax Impact

Customs valuation for commercial used-phone imports has been revised for popular models. This can change assessed duty/taxes at import and influence the “all-in” cost buyers see in Pakistan. Below is a clean summary with two charts.

Commercial imports

These values apply to used phones imported in commercial quantity (not a personal-import guide).

Handset-only valuation

Valuation is for used phones without packing or accessories (C&F values).

6-month activation rule

Reported condition: devices should be activated at least six months before export; importer declares, Customs verifies.

What changed

FBR’s Customs Valuation wing has updated reference values used for assessing duty and taxes on imported used/refurb phones. When assessable value shifts, it can change market pricing—especially for popular imported used iPhones and recent flagships.

  • Coverage includes Apple iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, and OnePlus models.
  • These values influence assessment at import and can affect final “tax/compliance cost” outcomes in the market.
  • Always verify your exact model/variant and current exchange rate before estimating totals.

How to use this as a buyer (quick checklist)

  • Separate handset price vs compliance cost: don’t mix “deal price” with registration cost.
  • Confirm PTA/IMEI status before payment: especially for imported used/refurb stock.
  • Use a calculator for your exact model: variants and routes (CNIC vs passport) can differ.
