Invoicing in Pakistan
A business registered in Pakistan charges Sales tax at 18% and invoices in PKR. Unlike a value-added tax there is no input-credit chain, so the tax sits on the sale itself and the document has to state it plainly. DocsOrigin takes the rate, the document names and the numbering conventions for Pakistan from the registry.
Invoicing in Pakistan is free forever with DocsOrigin: every document type, every export, no card and no trial.

How reliable is this figure
Graded high: this rate has been checked against a tax-authority or official source. It is still your responsibility to confirm it before you rely on it.
Whatever the grade, your own setting always wins — a rate you enter overrides the registry everywhere, including on documents already dated in the past.

Tax identifier
On a document issued in Pakistan the identifier is labelled Tax ID. It is printed in the header of every tax document, isolated left-to-right so it reads correctly in any interface language.
No structural check is applied for Pakistan: the format is accepted as entered, because a wrong rule that rejects a valid number is worse than no rule.
Numbering
Pakistan does not impose a strict national sequence, but DocsOrigin still numbers sequentially per document type and per year, because a gap is the first thing anyone auditing you will ask about.
Prefix, padding and yearly reset are configurable per document type, and the series is kept separately for each type.
How Pakistan writes dates and money
Set the country and these stop being settings you have to think about. The examples below are rendered by the same formatter the documents use.
- Date
- 21/09/2026
- Amount
- ₨12,345.67
- Currency
- PKR
- Minor units
- 2
PKR is written with 2 decimal places, and every amount is stored as a whole number of minor units. ⛔ Money never touches floating point.
A worked example in Pakistan
Three lines, priced identically everywhere, run through the real tax engine with the Pakistan registry entry applied. This is what the document looks like there.

Invoicing in Pakistan — questions
What tax rate do I charge in Pakistan?
The standard Sales tax rate recorded for Pakistan is 18%. Reduced rates may apply to particular supplies, and your own setting always overrides ours.
Which document do I issue to a customer in Pakistan?
The document set recognised in Pakistan is listed above, under the names used locally. For a paid sale the usual document is Factura fiscal, and a mistake on an issued document is corrected with a credit note rather than an edit.
Does DocsOrigin cost anything in Pakistan?
No. DocsOrigin is free forever for businesses in Pakistan as everywhere else: no subscription, no card, no trial, no per-document fee and no export fee. Optional professional services are the only thing that is ever charged for, and they are quoted per project.
What if the rate for Pakistan is wrong or changes?
Set your own rate in the business settings and it overrides the registry immediately, for new documents and for any date. Rates are applied by document date, so an old document keeps the rate that applied when it was issued.
Issue your first Pakistan document
Choose Pakistan once. The tax, the document names, the numbering, the date order and the currency format are configured together, and it costs nothing.
