ISLAMABAD: The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has announced a major step toward digitalization by mandating the electronic integration of invoicing systems for all corporate entities and companies by May 1, 2025.
The directive, issued under S.R.O. 709(I)/2025, extends the electronic invoicing requirement to both corporate and non-corporate taxpayers, removing all previous sector-specific distinctions.
Under the new regulation, businesses are required to synchronize their hardware and software systems with the national computerized invoicing platform for the real-time generation and transmission of electronic invoices.
While corporate entities must comply by May 1, non-corporate registered businesses have been given an extended deadline until June 1, 2025, to complete the integration process.
Previously, this requirement applied only to FMCG companies and Tier-1 retailers. The broadened scope signals FBR’s intensified push for transparency and efficiency in tax collection and documentation.
