ISLAMABAD, April 13, 2026 – Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has directed its officers to submit pending asset and liability declarations by April 24, warning of disciplinary consequences for non-compliance, according to an official circular issued on Monday.
The directive, circulated to senior officials including members at headquarters, chief commissioners, chief collectors and director generals, noted that several officers had yet to comply with earlier instructions regarding submission of asset records.
The FBR said it is compiling a consolidated report for the Establishment Division covering declarations of assets and liabilities for all officers over the past 10 years of service. The exercise is part of efforts to strengthen transparency and accountability within the tax administration.
“Scrutiny of records has revealed that a number of officers have not yet complied with the directions of the Board,” the circular stated, referring to a previous communication issued in March 2026.
Officials have now been instructed to submit all outstanding declarations up to the year ending June 30, 2025, by the revised deadline. The board emphasised that failure to meet the deadline would result in strict action.
The FBR warned that performance allowances of non-compliant officers would be discontinued without further notice if they fail to submit the required documentation within the stipulated timeframe.
Tax authorities said the move underscores the government’s focus on enforcing compliance within its own ranks, amid broader efforts to improve governance and transparency in public institutions.
The development comes as Pakistan continues to pursue administrative reforms aimed at enhancing credibility and efficiency in its revenue collection system.
