The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has urged people to buy products with the FBR tax stamp only, where applicable, in order to combat counterfeit products in the market.
The FBR has a launched a Track and Trace System (TTS) for Tabaco, Sugar, Cement and Fertilizer Sectors from July 1, 2022, to prevent counterfeiting, non-tax paid products and authentication of genuine product.
“Public is encouraged to buy products with FBR’s tax stamp only.” the FBR wrote in a Tweet, adding that FBR’s Tax Stamps are affixed on these products which can be scanned by the general public using the TransAct App.
The FBR’s TransAct App has been developed to verify the tax paid authentic product and it can be downloaded from Google Play Store or Apple’s App Store.
Furthermore, FBR shared pictures of the tax stamp for guidance of general public and asked them to report non-verified tax stamp products from the menu bar for further legal action.
