📢 Key Update:
Overseas Pakistanis will now be charged the reduced “Filer” rate of advance income tax even if they are technically Non-Filers, provided the following two conditions are met:
✅ The individual holds a valid POC (Pakistan Origin Card) or NICOP (National Identity Card for Overseas Pakistanis)
✅ The individual is a Non-Resident in Pakistan — i.e., they reside in Pakistan less than 183 days during a financial year
This progressive step is aimed at encouraging property investment from Pakistanis living abroad by removing unnecessary tax burdens.
