Last week, PTA officials informed the Senate Standing Committee on IT and Telecom that their system for online mobile registration for overseas Pakistanis was going to be completed within a week.
It further said that after the launch of the portal, people wouldn’t have to visit customs offices for paying taxes/duty for registration of mobile devices anymore.
That’s is better, and add e-payment online payment service to pay anytime hassle free and get payment CPR.
