Pakistan uses the Harmonized System to classify and describe goods. Customs duties are levied on ad valorem basis. Tariffs (customs duty) are levied at rates of 5 %, 10 %, 20 %, and 25 %. Essential items of food, raw material, capital goods, and machinery may be accorded duty-free entry. In addition, auto coners, certain industrial machinery and equipment, computer parts and accessories, and refrigerated trucks and vans not produced locally are accorded duty-free entry. Tariffs are payable in Pakistani currency.
Pakistan has no uniform or universal system of imposing labelling and marking requirements on products. Individual industries or sectors are subject to the regulations of specific bodies, for example, the Ministry of Health sets the requirements for the pharmaceutical industry. |
