Active Taxpayer List (ATL) Checker

Check your filer status instantly, and see the withholding tax surcharge you're paying if you're not on the list.

Each option below uses only the fields relevant to it — the rest are ignored.

For surcharge calculation: individuals, AOPs, and companies pay different flat surcharge amounts.

Surcharge amounts changed under Finance Act 2026 — pick the year that applies to your filing.

13-digit CNIC or 7-digit NTN, numbers only. This site hands off to FBR's official checker rather than storing or scraping any data.

Invoice value including duties for local vehicles, or customs value for imports.

Ignored if the vehicle value is Rs.5 million or more — a flat rate applies regardless of engine size at that point.

An approximate monthly comparison — the real tax applies per calendar day above a daily threshold, so uneven withdrawal patterns will differ from this estimate.

How This Calculator Works

  • 1Enter your CNIC number.
  • 2We check your status against the current Active Taxpayer List.
  • 3See the extra withholding tax a non-filer pays on your transaction type.

Why Filer Status Is Worth Checking

Non-filers pay a materially higher withholding tax rate on cash withdrawals, vehicle registration and transfer, property purchase, and dividend income - sometimes double the filer rate. Filing status can also lapse if a return is filed late, so checking before a major transaction avoids an unpleasant surprise at the counter.

Becoming a Filer

If the checker shows you're not active, our income tax services team can get your return filed and your ATL status updated, usually within one FBR processing cycle.

Reference

Checked against the FBR Active Taxpayer List and applicable withholding tax rates under the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001.
