What Is Salary Income Tax in Pakistan?

Salary income tax in Pakistan is a direct tax levied by the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) on the earnings of salaried individuals. Under the Income Tax Ordinance 2001, if more than 75% of your total income comes from salary, you are classified as a salaried person and benefit from lower, preferential tax rates compared to business income earners.

Pakistan follows a progressive tax system, meaning each income bracket is taxed at its own rate — you only pay the higher rate on the portion of income that falls within that slab, not on your entire income.

How Is Salary Tax Deducted in Pakistan?

Your employer calculates your estimated annual tax, divides it by 12, and deducts it from your monthly paycheck. This is called withholding tax or tax deduction at source. Your employer deposits this amount to FBR on a monthly basis.
