Confirm through official DIRBS assessmentHow this calculator helps
Use the declared mobile value to estimate registration duty for planning. Customs valuation and official DIRBS assessment remain authoritative, so the result is clearly presented as an estimate.
How to use it
- 1
Find the device's declared or assessed USD value rather than guessing from a local resale listing.
- 2
Enter the exchange rate and an estimated duty rate for planning.
- 3
Use DIRBS to obtain the official PSID amount for the exact IMEI before paying.
Formula and methodology
Estimated duty uses value bands and registration method. Passport and CNIC assessments can differ and official valuation may not equal purchase price.
Worked calculation example
Select passport or CNIC registration, enter the phone value in USD and the exchange rate, then review the estimated PKR range.
What can affect the result?
Customs valuation
The assessed value may differ from the amount shown on a shop receipt.
Registration route
Passport and CNIC treatment or eligibility can differ under official rules.
Device identity
Model, storage variant and IMEI status influence the official assessment.
Limits of this estimate
The calculator cannot query DIRBS, validate an IMEI or determine an official tax band; only the government assessment confirms payment.
