Another day and we have a news about another tax. Reports suggest that Government of Pakistan has imposed 14% tax on internet across Pakistan. With this new advance tax — which can be reclaimed at the time of filing of returnsĀ — 14% of the bill amount is supposed to get deducted on internetĀ usage across Pakistan.
This is a federal tax, and is imposed for Internet users inĀ all provinces.
For those who are wondering that Punjab just withdrew taxes on internet then why this new tax, thenĀ the tax that Punjab Government had impose and later reverted wasĀ GST.
GST or General Sales Tax is different from WHT, as GST is collected by provinces (and it is never returned) while WHT is collected by federal government and it can be re-claimed at the timing of filing returns.
Anyone with Rs. 1,000 monthly bill will have to pay Rs. 140 extraĀ as WHT
For commoners, you just have to pay 14% extra on your internet services.Ā Anyone with Rs. 1,000 monthly bill will have to pay Rs. 140 extra now, as advance tax.
For internet users in KPK and Sindh, you will have to pay 14% WHT and another 19.5% as GST. So a total of 33.5% tax for using internet.
ISPs are already in process of informing their customers about this new tax.
Those customers who file their returns can claim 14% WHTĀ back, while non-fillers can forget about this money for ever.
Mobile companies are still not sure if they will deduct this tax for mobile dataĀ usage or not. They said that bill requires interpretation and will be clarified at a later time.
A tax expert told ProPakistani that mobile phone companies already deduct 14% advance tax or WHT from card loads, which is then used for telecom services and mobile dataĀ as well. If internet is taxed at same rate then there will no change in how taxes are deducted forĀ mobile phone users. Which means that 14% advance tax on internet is applicable for mobile phone users as well.
please prove me wrong if i say that Govt. Of Pakistan does not rebate WHT ~!
They do
This lackey minion knows more than even the beggar govt itself.
how to get that pay back?
They don’t pay back.
file your tax return and it will be adjusted there. If no tax it will be returned back to you.
I don’t understand how to do that where to file the tax return & even what it is :(
This is the concept of WHT “In Theory”. It hardly materializes when it comes to real world.
In real world WTH is placed when people don’t pay taxes and they didn’t get any return. sometimes people pay less tax and this WTH remained there.
I did not get back the excessive tax i have paid. It was not much so I did not bother. Do they really pay back? I do not think so, if they do why they did not paid me back. is there any process to get back?
You submit your receipts or bills where you pay WTH and it will automatically deducted when you file income tax return
Millions of internet user’s income is below tax level and imposing With holding Tax on them is “Jaga Tax”.
This “Jaga Tax” will never be refunded to these innocent users ever
exactly. Mostly internet users are young people. And they don’e have either taxable income or their salaries are paid after deducting taxes, So they don’t file for taxes. That why there are no means you’ll get WHT back easily
Then file return n claim refund. Or adjust with salary tax. Simple!
its over headache. But if the income is below tax level you still have to file income tax return with 0 tax. And that income tax return can be used to get back your WHT from the likes of mobile operators, internet providers. And they do return your WH tax. Many people regularly claim their WHT and get back their money from mobile operators.
If your salary is already deducted then you have already paid the income tax.
It is stupid for a salaried person to not ask their company to file the income tax paper for them. Some companies do that for their employees.
If they do not, then a salaried person can download the form.
Fill it out, and send it by post to the tax office.
Then you shall get a cool letter from the government thanking you for paying your taxes.
Also mention the 14% you paid on the phone and internet bills to get them back or adjusted.

sher aaya sher aaya ?
Tax aese he dain gy log.
wth tax is not a good way to enter more people in tax net but it’s the perfect way in Pakistan.
We people pay thousands in different taxes yearly and intresting thing is some people pay more than their actual tax but they don’t want it to pay as they think it’s not their duty or a common bahana “ye sayasatdan kha jaen gy” or some people know nothing about tax and how to file it.
Tax should be collected from those people whose income is in taxable range
Imposing WHT tax on those whose income is not in taxable range is very Brutal and Senseless decision
even if your income is not taxable still your duty and obligation as a citizen is to return file and pay zero tax.
You are wrong. Only those whose income is in taxable range need to file return and can adjust the WHT in the annual return.
Where you have read that every one in this country need to file Tax return?
(even those whose income is below taxable range)
MasAllah plz use your brain.
Meri jaan sab return file kerty hain albatta tax sab nahi dete. They show that we earn less and won’t pay any tax.
Same for businesses, if they are in loss they get rebate.
FYI not filing return is unlawful in this country.
I said that a person who don’t fall in taxable income range need not to file return.
So low income group need not file return. And WHT should not be charged to them.
Dr Sahib have you got degree from Axact?
Regards
He is right u ve to file a return in any case. Whether u earn or not.
Sir please give a single reference from where this information stems that every Pakistani whether rich or poor, employeed or unemployed. Having Zero income should file retun?
Kindly avoid giving baseless information

If you paid wht then you did not pay zero tax.
If your income is so low, at least get your WHT adjusted or returned.
With WHT there is no one who is paying ZERO tax.
Simple
I think you don’t know even ABC of Taxation…
I never claimed that I am tax expert
But I do know that tax return is not mandatory for common man whose income is below tax range. The point discussed here is that Why Govt is collecting WHT (advance income tax) from General Public/Students etc who are not liable to pay any tax or submit tax return
Don’t try to confuse the situation
Income tax is on income. Sales tax is on sales.
WHT is done on some items or services.
There are also excise and other taxes like vehicle, or property.
You are taking about not liable for income tax.
It does not mean that if they import something they shall not be liable for customs duties.
yeah my duty is to pay tax while my country officials do not provide me opportunities to earn enough money.
f you know anything about tax, it is for the betterment of common man.. not jagga tax.
First pay the tax then question the government.
No one pays tax, we hardly get 30% out of this 90% is sales toll etc.
This thing will continue forever.people demand everything first and government need tax first.
Have you ever purchased “Soap” if so please read the price tag and you will see you are paying some tax
If you ever traveled by air, your fare include tax
If you ever happned to pay mobile phone bill you are paying tax. how much?
So how come you conclude that nobody pays any tax in this country
Meri jaan soap walay
That was the tax I said collected here.
The direct tax collection in Pakistan is less than 1 %. If you ever heard about income tax.
Thank you Dr Sahib at least you acknowledged that everybody in Pakistan is paying tax (at least Indirect taxes and that are about 17-40%)
Govt already takes away at least 25% from my disposable income by imposing indirect taxes and still says that nobody pays any tax.
So stop blaming Pakistanis that they don’t Pay any Tax. Every Pakistani is paying tax. Its a jugglery that call it indirect tax. In the end govt is collecting huge amount by calling it indirect tax.
The article is about WHT that is supposed to be collected from those who fall in the range of taxable income
The point here is that don’t collect WHT (advance income tax) from those who are exempt
Now if direct tax collection is so low its the inefficiency of concerned Govt Departments. Why punish poor people and especially Youth?
I completely agree with you that every one is paying indirect tax.
But indirect tax only reach to government when some one files a return.
As this tax is collected by manufacturer and/or Service provider, but how Govt will know that you paid the tax until you file a Tax Return.
If you ever file a tax return, you would know that this is just a statement that says how much indirect tax I have already paid in terms of Sales Tax, WHT, Advance Tax etc.
Like in your example, if you buy a Soap for 100 PKR, it includes 18%GST, and all this money goes to retailer, and the forward to whole seller, and whole seller pay to manufacture. End consumer is the only person who is paying tax, retailer/whole seller and manufacture are just forwarder, but there is no way for Govt to know that how many soaps you used in whole year, until you file a Tax return, and if you don’t then this money which you paid as a tax will only goes to manufactuere’s pocket.
Yup you are right. Once people get enrolled for Direct taxation, i.e. start filing returns, logically, indirect taxation (GST, SST, PST etc usually 17% will gradually be reduced by any govt whether it is ganja, balla or teer). People need to understand. When they don’t give taxes, country will opt for indirect measures which hit poor very hard. Secondly, your country has to restore raising debts. Not good if u want to develop your country collectively. Read history of Germans and Japanese after WWII.
Sir What about job less persons??? Without internet!!! :-O
they can’t comment over here
I will kill you if I Find you molana.
Axactly! Uncle Sharif, Zardari, Imran aur Bhai Bilawal don’t pay tax then how we can imagine our whole nation will pay tax. If the people who are senior in the government don’t pay tax, the junior will do the same. It’s the main problem of being not paid tax.. In Pakistan, that’s why, only 0.57% people pay income taxā0.7million out of 190 millionāBBC. Another example, ARY collected 10 million rupees just in an hour. The reason was that people trusted that our money is going into the right hands otherwise that was not possible. If you want to make the people taxpayer then make the senior of the government taxpayer. And I said we have no objection in paying tax because we believe our money is not being utilized as a proper way.
Every one in this country is paying at least 17% tax
and its wrong propoganda that nobody pay tax
When you pay for petrol, electricity, house hold items etc you are paying sales tax (consumption tax), custom, excise, WHT etc. Actually we all are already paying sufficient tax
So from a beggar to a king all are paying tax in this country according to there consumption level.
This is mere FBR’s and IMF agents Damara who always says that no body pays tax.
After imposition Sales tax, Custom Duty, Excise duty etc all other taxes should be abolished or brought to lower level
There is a great difference between income tax and normal tax, Brother!! You may be right 17% people pay tax, but not income WALA. If the people were paid only 8% income tax, we would see miracles. In this way, the government would not need to implement such tax as given aboveŪ People don’t pay income tax, that’s why, our government has crossed all the limits in implementing tax in order to gain the loss which is being done by income tax.
I said we all pay at least 17% Sales tax.
Repeat please read “WE ALL”
Oh, Great! We pay sales tax, Great!! Is Nawaz Sharif exception of ’em? Is he not under the list in which he should pay incometax? Just Rs.5000!! Similarly, Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf, Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar, and Religious Affairs Minister Syed Khushid Ahmad Shah paid only $1,466, $716 and $466 respectively in their lifetime, Jahangir’s World Times Jan 2015, Page No.79.
So the real issue is with the “Untouchables”, FBR go get them
I am proud “Poor Pakistani” amongst millions of Pakistanis who are already contributing to national progress by paying 17% to 40% tax on daily purchases
Stop saying that “Nobody in Pakistan pays any tax” .
This drama of blaming all Pakistanis should end now.
FBR Catch the big fishes if you can!
bhai aap ko baat samajh nahi aa rhai or Muhammad Aamir ko samjhani nahi a rahi… Aamir INCOME TAX ki baat kar raha he jo k har salaried person ki salary se cut jata he accoridng to his/her income. Approximately it is around 3800 rupees if your salary is 1 Laakh (100,000 PKR). masla ye hai k sirf salaried people ki income se INCOME TAX deduct hota he and there are many professionals or businessmen jin ki income ka kuch ata pata hi nahi hota… for example all the shopkeepers, cloth traders, lawyers, private doctors and many such professions who DO NOT pay INCOME TAX because there is no such law to calculate their income and they are overlooked NO MATTER if they are earning many thousands or laakhs per month.. samajh aayi baat k nahi ?
To uska hal ye nikala ha ke sabko TAX laga do?
fill the form and collect the WHT back. How hard is that for those poor people.
This is Pakistan.
Pakistan zinda bad.
So, basically, if i want my 14% back… i just have to be a filed tax payer… right??
I don’t think so it’s possible! This implementation seems as same as sales tax which is impossible to take back.
Sales tax is not refundable and can’t be adjusted in income tax return
Basically if you are not liable for income tax ie your income is below income tax range WHT should not be imposed on you
And forget about getting refund from FBR even if you are a tax return filer
I see.. so the GOP has made its final move to sabotage what’s been done in the past year. I knew it! All they wamt is money,money,money. They dont care about the average middle class person living in a worse than poor state!
Just exempt those who are fillers and tax the rest.
This is just another way of earning more revenue cz they r just following imf directives.
shair bano shair :)
What the…..
switching to 1 mb from 4 mb
Special notice
any PMLN and PPP worker or leader dnt ask me ever for vote.
doing same going back to 1MB
me too from 2mb to 1 mb…
Are you saying I could reclaim WHT on card load?
I Think We Need Another Foji…
For those who were claiming that PML-N Government is doing fine as they lower many prices last year. That was because they were feared from dharna of Imran Khan. They lower down prices of many things especially the prices of petroleum products.
Now the situation is different. After getting collaboration from Zardari the stance has been changed. FY 2015-16 has been regarding as the year of taxes. They double the tax on sale of mobile phones, imposed taxes on bank holders and bank transactions. Imposed taxes on aero planes’s tickets. And in the end imposed 14% WHT on internet usage. but that is not the end for your information. Government is planning to tax the freelancing industry too.
Why so many taxes been imposed. The government is wasting huge money in useless projects like metro bus system which in return is adding no revenue to the government. They are also wasting money on laptop schemes. They also failed to fulfill the promises of supply of electricity for which they get vote bank.
Overall government is also failed to collect taxes from the huge revenue makers who always found to be evaded from taxes.
The conclusion is that taxes is burden on the pocket of common persons.
14% WHT on slow speed internet as compared to other countries and 0.6 on all types of Bank transactions I think its time to leave Pakistan !!
Internet choro yaha pishaaf karni pir bi 22% tax hai…..

Thats Why Young People Are Not Interested In Setting Their Life Here Why Should We Pay Taxes
Zong has already been deducting this tax on internet on postpaid connections. When I asked months back, they said internet is free of GST and not of WTH.
Matlb Ab Waqt a gya hai k Internet ko bhi Good Bye kar dia jaye……. Chalo chalain kisi aur dunia main jahan TAX na hoon. So SAD :(
yeh tax lgta hy axact ki kargardagi dekh k lagaya gya hy… I think they don’t know before that how much these IT industry people earn.
or maybe that poster behind Rickshaw “ghar bethay lakhoo dollor kamaye” let them think about this ratio of TAX.
these a**h*les don’t think anything through, even if the purpose of this tax is to suck money outta non filers, they could have made the process much simpler for filers, without anyone having to claim refunds, if they would have placed a system in collaboration with internet providers that Any person who provides his/her NTN no. should be exempted from advance taxes. What are they gonna make of advance tax? don’t these idiots know anything about economics term “dead weight loss”, the money that is taxed isn’t used in any business activity so everyone in the economic system faces loss e.g. where they could have gained more taxes on the money they have received as advance tax(which they have to return too at the end of financial year).
Hharam shareef government pehle 20% pay ker rahe he ab MC ko 14% or pay kere. Marr jao kisi begharat ki nasalo.
How much tax will now be deducted on card load?
This is the reason I don’t pay income tax as they are already stealing.
This is pathetic! Advanced countries are moving towards free internet, cheap computers (in fact, I just read a company has made cheapest computer for 9$ (http://gadgtecs.com/index.php/2015/07/04/worlds-cheapest-computer-9/), but Pakistani govt is going nuts!
Taxing the internet? For sharifs the real progress is dispensing the sarya made in their mills. Equation is simple, squeeze the juice out of common man and use that money to buy sarya and make the ‘c’ people happy.
i believe the WHT on 1000 would be 129.8 not 140.
I live in Azad kashmir and have no income at all how can i can i file tax return ? i never registered for NTN and Azad kashmir have its own Board of Revenue ?
how to make payment of 14% advance tax on fbr portal there is no any section of 14% advance tax
Asalam o aliykum . Mein fruit ki rehri lagata hoon or total income 15000 monthly hy mein internet bhe uyse kerta hoon for Study purpose jis per 14% WHT hy kiya mein Sirf internet use kerny k liye tax net mein shamil ho jaon jab k meri amdan be mehdood hy. Regards
Asalam O aliykum : mery khayal mein gov ko tax cooperate user per lagana chahye . student or residential user per nai lagana chahye . ager aysa nai ker sakty tu stone age mein wapis chaly jaty hein. dunya sy kioun muqabla kerin .rahein jahilon ki tarhan or taraqi yafta hony ka khuab na dekhein .. Thanks for reading
For a average mobile user who uses 500 monthly tariff plan, the amount of advance tax is just 55-65 rupees. On yearly basis, it becomes around 650-700. If you are a salaries person and this is your only source of income, does it makes any sense to claim this 700 advance tax amount in return? Will FBR refund you this amount? I think there is a high % of mobile users, who do not claim this amount. The cost of claiming refund will be higher than the amount of advance tax. So, all goes in the pocket of Govt :-)
