The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) and the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) are actively working to raise public awareness about mobile device registration through the Device Identification, Registration, and Blocking System (DIRBS).
Consumers have been strongly advised to purchase PTA-approved devices, which can be identified by a clearly visible stamp (PTA Approved) on the handset, to ensure seamless network compatibility and secure operations within Pakistan’s mobile ecosystem.
The registration process is completed in DIRBS after the payment of applicable taxes and duties imposed and collected by FBR, along with the verification of technical requirements by PTA. These joint efforts aim to foster a stronger and more secure digital future for Pakistan.
For the latest updates on taxes and duties applicable to mobile devices, stakeholders are encouraged to visit the official FBR website: FBR Mobile Devices Regularization.
