FBR Income Tax Deadline Sept 30 Penalties
FBR Warns of Penalties for Missing Income Tax Return Deadline
Islamabad – The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has warned taxpayers that strict action will be taken against anyone who fails to file their income tax returns by September 30, 2025, the final deadline for submissions. Notifications have been sent via SMS to remind the public of the consequences.
Authorities said individuals who miss the deadline may face frozen bank accounts and travel restrictions. However, the FBR emphasized that full support is available to taxpayers through Regional Tax Offices (RTOs) and the FBR Helpline to help meet compliance requirements.
Both salaried individuals and business owners are required to submit their returns on time. Those who file before the deadline will be exempt from penalties.
FBR Denies Changes in 2025 Tax Return Form
Earlier, the FBR clarified that no amendments have been made to the Income Tax Return 2025 form, despite misleading reports circulating online. The form was uploaded to the FBR website on July 7, 2025, and no SRO has introduced any changes.
A spokesperson explained that taxpayers must declare the market value of their assets on page 66 of the form. Many taxpayers, however, had incorrectly entered “zero,” leading to restrictions. The FBR stressed that entering the market value is at the taxpayer’s discretion, and returns do not need to be refiled or amended once submitted.
The board urged taxpayers to provide values that reflect the actual market worth of their assets to avoid unnecessary complications.
