The post highlighted that FBR’s tax stamps are affixed on these products which can be scanned by the general public. For this purpose, the TransAct App has been developed to verify the tax-paid authentic products. FBR has urged the public to download the TransAct FBR Pakistan App from the Google Play Store/iOS.

I want to buy Tires with this stamp. But thanks to the corrupt Officers of Pakistan (both on Border and Inside the borders) that most of the tires are smuggled illegally rather than arriving via legal routes. Similarly most car engines are coming via the illegal route and are known as “Kabuli parts” in the market. Government is losing billions because of this
Agreed
You can buy non smuggled tires but they will cost a lot more. Find the official distributor of your favorite brand and buy it directly from them.
Fbr already have an app why they want people to flood their smartphones with too mang govt apps?
