Customs duty target of Rs 706.6 billion assigned to Appraisement South Region was thus exceeded by a significant margin. The total duty and taxes collected by Appraisement South in FY 2021-22 were Rs 2363 billion as against Rs 1672 billion collected in previous financial year.

According to an official, due to enhanced focus on revenue collection through administrative measures, Rs 17 billion was collected by Appraisement South through recovery of arrears and auction of uncleared cargo which is substantially more than the previous year.
