What are Sales Tax and Federal Excise Tax?

A sales tax refers to an amount that is paid to the government upon selling items or for services. This tax is an addition to the final value of the product, which is calculated by multiplying the cost of the item by the tax rate. On the other hand, the Federal Excise Tax (FED) is paid on specific products that are manufactured, and then this tax cost is further passed on to the consumer. 

Conclusion

To sum up, FBR has again extended the sales tax and federal excise tax submission date in Pakistan, which is now August 4, 2025. However, businesses can take advantage of this date extension to make sure the taxes are paid.
