Pakistan's Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) is planning to introduce a new law to tax cryptocurrency users, with 9 million users potentially affected.
The FBR has started consulting experts to draft the country's first-ever cryptocurrency tax legislation, aiming to document digital profits and expand the national tax base amid rising crypto adoption.
Money and profits generated and assets created through cryptocurrency dealings will remain undocumented and untaxed unless this regime is streamlined through legal provisions and clear rules.
