Why incorporate in Pakistan
0.25% IT and ITeS export final tax
IT and ITeS exporters with PSEB registration pay a 0.25% final tax on export proceeds through 2026 (rising to 1% thereafter). One of the lowest export tax rates globally, and crucially structured as a final tax with no separate CIT layer.
Small company rate of 20%
Companies with turnover up to PKR 250M and meeting the small company definition pay 20% CIT, versus 29% plus super tax (up to 10%) for large companies. The brackets reward keeping operations lean.
Clean FATF status since October 2022
Pakistan exited the FATF grey list in October 2022 after delivering on both action plans. Banking and correspondent relationships have normalised, though SBP FX repatriation approvals still apply.
240M English speaking common law jurisdiction
Inherited UK common law, English as the language of commerce and courts, and a 240M population with deep technical talent. The cost to output ratio for engineering, design, and finance ops is genuinely competitive with India.
"The 0.25% IT export tax sounded too good to be true until we ran it through PSEB and SBP. Two years in, no issues with repatriation as long as the ERA account is set up correctly."
"We hired 22 engineers in Karachi against a Delaware C-Corp parent. CorpSec set up the Pakistan Pvt Ltd subsidiary, PSEB registration, and intercompany services agreement in one workstream."
