We register software houses, IT and IT-enabled services companies and call centres with the Pakistan Software Export Board, prepare the document pack, follow up until your certificate is issued and align it with your bank and tax position so you get the reduced rate on export proceeds.
The Pakistan Software Export Board (PSEB), under the Ministry of IT and Telecom, registers IT and IT-enabled services companies, call centres and freelancers. For businesses exporting IT services, registration affects how export income is taxed and how banks treat incoming foreign payments.
Under section 154A of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001, export proceeds from IT and IT-enabled services are taxed under a final tax regime when they are realised through banks. Since 2022, exporters registered with PSEB have been eligible for a reduced rate of 0.25% instead of the standard 1%, and the reduced rate has been reported as extended to 2029. Rates are set by each year's Finance Act, so we confirm the current position for your business.
To register, a business generally needs to be formally registered with SECP or as a firm, hold an NTN, have a functioning office and be actively providing IT or IT-enabled services. The application is made online through PSEB's registration portal with the business's incorporation documents, owners' and directors' CNICs and bank records, and the registration is renewed every year. Freelancers register separately through freelancer PSEB registration.
A fixed fee for registration, with renewal and compliance support available every year.
