February Tax Return Deadline Extended by FBR — Avoid Penalties!

ISLAMABAD: The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has officially extended the deadline for filing Sales Tax and Federal Excise Returns for the month of February 2025. Taxpayers now have until March 27, 2025, to submit their returns, offering them additional time beyond the original deadline of March 18, 2025.

The extension has been granted under Section 74 of the Sales Tax Act, 1990, and Section 43 of the Federal Excise Act, 2005.

In a notification issued on Tuesday, the FBR directed all Chief Commissioners of Inland Revenue across the Large Taxpayer Offices (LTOs), Medium Taxpayer Offices (MTOs), Corporate Tax Offices (CTOs), and Regional Tax Offices (RTOs) to ensure taxpayers are informed and compliance is maintained with the revised timeline.

This move is aimed at facilitating taxpayers and ensuring smoother processing of returns across the country.
