What is FBR Digital Invoicing?

FBR Digital Invoicing is a government-mandated system that requires businesses to generate sales invoices digitally and transmit them in real time to the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) through licensed integrators (like PRAL).

Under this system, every invoice is validated, assigned a unique FBR Invoice Number, and stamped with a QR code. This ensures transparency, reduces tax evasion, and simplifies tax filing for businesses.

Note: IBX Digital Invoicing works seamlessly with our ERP Software and POS System.

Who needs to comply?

As per SRO 709(I)/2025 and amendments to the Sales Tax Act 1990, FBR Digital Invoicing is mandatory for:

  • Tier-1 Retailers registered with FBR.
  • Manufacturers and Distributors of FMCG products.
  • Wholesalers supplying taxable goods.
  • Any business currently integrated with POS.

FBR Digital Invoicing FAQs

Answers based on Sales Tax Act 1990 & SRO 709(I)/2025.

Mandates & Integration

Is Electronic Invoicing Mandatory in Pakistan?
Yes. As per S.R.O 709 dated April 22, 2025, Electronic Invoicing is mandatory for all Corporate registered persons (deadline June 1st, 2025) and Non-Corporate registered persons (deadline July 1st, 2025).
Is it mandatory to integrate my POS/ERP via a Licensed Integrator?
Yes. Registered persons must integrate their Point of Sale (POS) or ERP with FBR only through a Licensed Integrator (like IBX/PRAL integration). Direct integration without a valid license is not permitted.
Is a physical visit to FBR required for integration?
No. Physical visits are not required. The integration is handled digitally by the software provider (IBX) using technical documentation provided by FBR.
What is the enforcement date for Electronic Invoicing?
As per S.R.O 709, the integration deadline for Corporate registered persons is June 1st, 2025. For Non-Corporate registered persons, it is July 1st, 2025.
Is there a downloadable software from FBR?
No, FBR does not provide downloadable software for end-users. You must use a commercial software (like IBX POS/ERP) connected via a Licensed Integrator to transmit invoices.

Operational Handling

How can an E-invoice be cancelled or returned?
An FBR invoice cannot be simply "deleted." As per Section 9 of the Sales Tax Act 1990, if goods are returned or values change, the registered person must issue a Debit or Credit Note linked to the original invoice. IBX software handles this automatically.
How to handle sales to Unregistered Buyers?
As per Section 23(1)(b) of the Sales Tax Act, invoices issued to unregistered buyers (who do not provide CNIC/NTN) must still be processed electronically. However, for bulk supplies to unregistered distributors, the invoice must contain the NIC or NTN.
What happens if the internet goes down?
In case of internet failure, IBX POS stores the invoices locally (Offline Mode). Once connectivity is restored, the system automatically syncs the data with FBR servers ensuring compliance with Sales Tax Rules 2006.
How to handle Multiple SKUs with the same HS Code?
Items having the same HS Code (e.g., 2007.9900) but different SKUs or tax rates can be added as distinct items in an invoice using unique descriptions. You do not need to club them together; the IBX system handles the separation automatically to ensure correct tax treatment.
Does e-invoicing apply to export sales?
Yes. You are required to issue a digital invoice for all sales to be reported in Annexure-C of the sales tax return, including both local and export sales.
