New PTA Taxes on iPhone XR
After the recent increase, the new PTA taxes on iPhone XR in May 2023 are PKR 58320 (on Passport) and PKR 69652 (on CNIC). The rise in price could be attributed to the rupee devaluation and the ban on imports in Pakistan. The iPhone XR was launched in 2018 and has since become one of Apple’s most popular devices. The phone is known for its advanced features and sleek design, making it a highly sought-after device in the Pakistani market.
