iPhone Duo PTA Tax: Passport vs CNIC

Registering the iPhone Duo on your Passport costs Rs 172,535, while the CNIC route costs Rs 184,035, which is Rs 11,500 more because it includes income tax.

You can pay the Passport amount only if you brought the phone into Pakistan yourself and register it within 60 days of arrival. If you bought it in Pakistan, it was sent to you, or the 60 days have passed, you pay the CNIC amount, and a late fine may also apply.

Both amounts are estimates based on the iPhone Duo's US launch price and the rates from 1 July 2026. FBR sets the final amount from the assessed value of your exact phone, so confirm it with FBR's official IMEI duty lookup before paying.

How to Pay the iPhone Duo PTA Tax

  1. Dial *#06# to get the IMEI and check its status with our IMEI checker.
  2. Apply on PTA's DIRBS portal (dirbs.pta.gov.pk) with your Passport or CNIC and the IMEI.
  3. Pay the PSID (payment slip ID) through online banking, mobile banking, an ATM or a bank branch.
  4. Once the payment is confirmed, the iPhone Duo works on Pakistani networks.

The estimated PTA tax on the iPhone Duo is Rs 172,535 on Passport and Rs 184,035 on CNIC.

Is Passport or CNIC cheaper for the iPhone Duo?

Is this the official FBR amount for the iPhone Duo?

Not yet. FBR has not published a value for the iPhone Duo, so this is our estimate based on its launch price. We will update it when official figures are available. Check DIRBS before paying.

Can I pay the iPhone Duo PTA tax in instalments?

Yes. From the Finance Act 2026, tax on a phone registered through PTA's DIRBS can be paid in instalments, as long as everything is paid before the end of the financial year in which the phone was imported.

What happens if I do not register my iPhone Duo?

An unregistered iPhone Duo is blocked from Pakistani mobile networks, so calls, SMS and mobile data stop working with a local SIM. It still works on Wi-Fi.

How do I check if an iPhone Duo is PTA approved?

Dial *#06# to get its IMEI, then check it with the Sellphone.pk IMEI checker or by sending the IMEI to 8484.
