    Lets coming to the topic How to Start Import And Export Business in Pakistan, Nowadays export & Import license is no more required to do export & import Business in Pakistan. Only the following initial documents are required to export:

    1) NTN

    Get your company ‘s NTN(National Tax Number) Certificate, which is issued by the Income Tax Department on the filing of application form accompanied with one attested copy of NIC. Click here to Online NTN Registration.

    2) Sales Tax Registration

    The commercial exporter is not required to register with the Sales Tax Department. But if you pay the sale tax on the goods from a local market it will be better for you to get yourself registered with sales tax department so that you may claim your input tax deducting on your purchases. Once you are registered in the sales tax department you will be obliged to the monthly sales tax return irrespective of the fact that you have been involved in any sales tax activity or not.

    3) Bank Account

    Current Bank Account is required for export proceedings and documents.

    4) Chamber Membership

    Membership certificate of Chamber of Commerce and Industries or any relevant trade association is required.

    5) Documents For Clearing Agent

    Once the consignment, to be exported arrives at the port, usually, a clearing agent service is sought. The following documents are required to provide to the clearing agent to clear the consignment.

    • i) Packing List.
    • ii) Commercial Invoice.
    • iii) Letter of Credit (L/C).
    • iv) Certificate of Origin which is issued by the Chamber of Commerce.
    • v) National Tax Number Certificate.

    7) Submission of Export Documents to the bank.

    All shipping documents covering goods exported from Pakistan and declared on form „E‟ must be passed through the medium of the bank within 14 days from the date of shipment. The exporter must submit the shipping documents, invoices etc., to the bank.

    (Note: Now in Pakistan Form-E Issues Electronically in WeBoc System, Therefore no need to physically submit Form-E )
