RD on SUVs slashed

KARACHI: The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has slashed the regulatory duty (RD) on sport utility vehicles (SUVs) and all-terrain vehicles from 50 percent to 20 percent.

The FBR issued SRO 1064(I)/2026, replacing SRO 1152(I)/2025.

According to the notification, which takes effect from July 1, 2026, the RD on SUVs (1,800cc and above) and all-terrain vehicles, previously 50 percent under SRO 1152(I)/2025, has now been reduced to 20 percent. Smaller-engine SUVs (below 1,800cc) and CBU vehicles also saw modest reductions, generally from 10 percent to 8 percent.
