Pakistan's Ministry of Finance and Revenue, alongside the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), has formed a task force to digitize the nation's tax system. Chaired by Minister of State for Finance and Revenue, Ali Pervez Malik, the task force held its first meeting at FBR headquarters. The primary goal is to improve the FBR's effectiveness in revenue generation by end-to-end digitization of its systems. This includes data sharing among key stakeholders to identify tax return non-filers and those evading the tax system, automating FBR systems, and implementing supply chain automation. Four working groups have been established to provide draft recommendations, with the next task force meeting scheduled for August 21, 2024.
