FBR sets sights on transformation in four years

ISLAMABAD: The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has finalised a plan to transform all tax offices into model tax offices (MTOs) and streamline enforcement and intelligence directorates to reduce the menace of smuggling.

These offices will be converted between October and January 2028 with a greater emphasis on digitalisation, improved auditing and strong enforcement to close the tax gap and achieve actual collection.

There are four large taxpayer offices (LTOs) in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and Multan.
