®Pakistan FBR digital invoicing integration
Pakistan's FBR requires sales-tax-registered persons to issue electronic invoices integrated with the FBR system through a licensed integrator or PRAL, each invoice carrying an invoice number and QR code. We connect your billing, POS, or ERP to the FBR so your invoices are validated and reported in real time.

What is FBR Digital Invoicing in Pakistan?
Pakistan's FBR Digital Invoicing requires sales-tax-registered persons to issue electronic invoices that are integrated with the FBR's system in real time. Each invoice is validated and assigned an FBR invoice number and a QR code. Integration happens through a licensed integrator or through PRAL (the FBR's technology arm).
The obligation has been introduced through a series of statutory orders (SROs) since 2025, placing registered persons into phased categories for registration, testing, and live issuance. Corporate and non-corporate registrants were given different start dates, and the FBR has issued extensions during the rollout. Enforcement provisions allow the FBR to act against persons who do not integrate.
Because the exact category deadlines have shifted, the practical step is to confirm your category with the FBR and get connected. We handle the integrator or PRAL connection and the real-time flow.

We connect your billing, POS, or ERP to the FBR through a licensed integrator or PRAL, handling the real-time flow, the FBR invoice number, and the QR code. If your system cannot connect, we build or adapt one that can.
