You can get your smartphone’s PTA Approval through Bank Alfalah’s Alfa Mall on an easy installment plan with zero markup (interest-free) without having to pay the entire amount upfront. The service, however, is only available to Bank Alfalah credit card customers.
This is especially useful these days, as the Federal Board of Revenue’s (FBR) taxes on imported smartphones have become very high, and getting PTA approval has become extremely difficult for most people.
FBR’s taxes on flagship phones now cost well over Rs. 150,000, which is extremely high, and many people buy these smartphones after saving for a long time, making paying nearly 50% of the phone’s cost for PTA Approval extremely difficult for these people.
As a result, many people continue to use their phones without having them PTA approved, and they work around the problem by keeping a cheaper second device, such as the Jazz Digit, for their SIM card and data usage.
However, you can now get your phone PTA approved on a simple monthly payment plan.
