Frequently asked questions

Tax & Corporate Advisory questions

Can you help a foreign company set up in Pakistan?

Yes. We advise offshore investors on SECP incorporation, branch or liaison office registration and the related tax registrations, and coordinate the filings needed to get the entity operating.

Can you help us run a back office in Pakistan?

Yes. Alongside the registrations, we can provide finance operations and a dedicated offshore team so the Pakistan entity runs day to day.

Do you handle ongoing filing after registration?

Yes. Returns, withholding statements and annual SECP filings can be handled on their own or as part of a Financial Operations retainer.

Do you quote current tax rates on this page?

No. Rates change with each Finance Act, so we confirm the position that applies to you at the time of your engagement.

Can we meet in person?

Yes. Tax and corporate advisory is the one service we also offer in person, for clients in Pakistan. Everything else is delivered remotely.

How is the work billed?

Registrations and one-off filings are usually a fixed fee; ongoing compliance is usually a monthly retainer. Fees are agreed in writing before work starts.
