Frequently Asked Question
To become a filer:
- Register for an NTN with FBR.
- Create an account on the FBR IRIS portal.
- Submit your annual income tax return.
- Pay any applicable tax liabilities.
- Once processed, your name will appear on the Active Taxpayers List (ATL).
A filer regularly submits tax returns and appears on the ATL, while a non-filer does not. Filers benefit from reduced tax rates and better financial opportunities, whereas non-filers face higher tax deductions and charges.
The exact amount depends on property value and current tax regulations. However, non-filers generally pay significantly higher withholding taxes compared to filers, increasing the overall cost of property transactions.
You can become a filer by obtaining an NTN, registering on the FBR IRIS portal, and filing your annual income tax return before the prescribed deadline.
Yes. Non-filers may be subject to higher advance withholding taxes on certain banking transactions, including cash withdrawals above specified limits, as determined by FBR regulations.
No. Under the current tax system, taxpayers are generally categorized as either filers (appearing on the ATL) or non-filers. If a taxpayer files late, they may regain filer status after meeting FBR requirements and being included in the ATL.
