PTA Tax Impact on Latest Apple iPhones in Pakistan: Apple’s devices stand out for their superior hardware and software integration, premium design, regular updates, strong privacy and security features, and high resale value compared to Android devices.
However, the prices of these devices are considerably steep, mainly due to substantial taxation, the depreciation of the local currency, and other contributing factors. Importing Apple devices is also a complex process since Apple has not officially launched its products in Pakistan, further contributing to the elevated prices. PTA taxes on iPhones in Pakistan are notably high compared to other countries, reaching six-digit values on higher-end devices.
