For tax year 2026-27, Pakistan's salaried tax slabs under the Finance Act 2025 (baseline — pending Finance Act 2026) are: tax-free up to PKR 600,000, then progressive rates from 1.00% upward across higher income brackets, capped at 35.00% on income above PKR 4,100,000. Yes — for FY 2026-27, an additional 9% surcharge applies on calculated tax if total income exceeds PKR 10,000,000.
When does the FY 2026-27 tax year start and end in Pakistan?
Pakistan's fiscal year 2026-27 runs from 1 July to 30 June, in line with the federal budget cycle. Finance Act 2025 (baseline — pending Finance Act 2026) governs the slabs and rates for this entire period. The annual tax return filing deadline for salaried individuals and AOPs is 30 September following the end of the fiscal year, unless the FBR extends it by notification.
Is the PKR 600,000 tax-free threshold still applicable for FY 2026-27?
Yes — for tax year 2026-27, the basic exemption threshold for salaried individuals remains PKR 600,000 of annual income. Salaried employees earning at or below this amount pay zero income tax for the year, but should still file a nil return to maintain Active Taxpayer (ATL) status.
How do I file my tax return for FY 2026-27?
Tax returns for FY 2026-27 are filed online through the FBR's IRIS 2.0 portal (iris.fbr.gov.pk). Salaried filers need their salary certificate, CNIC, and bank account details. The deadline is 30 September. Filing on time keeps you on the Active Taxpayers List, which gives you reduced withholding tax rates on banking, vehicles, and property transactions.
What's the difference between salaried and AOP tax rates for FY 2026-27?
Salaried individuals (where 75% or more of income is from salary) use the salaried slabs published in Finance Act 2025 (baseline — pending Finance Act 2026), with the lowest rates. AOPs (Association of Persons), partnerships, and non-salaried individuals use a separate slab schedule with higher marginal rates and a different threshold structure. Use the calculator on this page to compute either.
