The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has crossed the mark of 1,800,000 income tax filers for tax year 2018 for the first time in its history. The FBR is committed to broadening the tax base to truly make our country self-reliant. The FBR will continue with its efforts of creating awareness about the importance of paying taxes not only as a civic duty, but also for the growth of the economy. The institution is devoted to facilitating the public in helping to not only fulfil their tax obligations but also to create an enabling environment that fosters economic growth. The institution is also geared to act against those guilty of not fulfilling their tax obligations.
The FBR could not have achieved this landmark without the cooperation of our taxpaying public. Together with your support we can truly make the dream of a vibrant Pakistan a distinct reality. Meanwhile, the Federal Board of Revenue has extended the date of filing of income tax returns/statements for the tax year 2018 till 30th April, 2019. The date of filing of returns for companies, individuals and association of persons is also extended to 30th April, 2019.
The FBR took this decision in view of numerous representations by various trade bodies and organizations along with other taxpayers seeking extension in the date of filing of returns for Tax Year 2018. All persons, who have not yet filed their returns, are urged to take advantage of this opportunity. It goes without saying that the FBR has extensive plans to pursue and legally proceed against those persons who are liable to file returns but don't file it by this extended date.-PR
