Expatriates’ Gift Scheme – Auto Import Policy (Pakistan) 2026
The Expatriates’ Gift Scheme enables overseas Pakistanis to gift one imported vehicle to an eligible beneficiary in Pakistan under a regulated, transparent framework. The scheme is designed to facilitate personal imports, encourage formal remittance inflows, and curb misuse through clear compliance controls.
Key features include eligibility linked to expatriate status, mandatory payment through official banking channels, and predefined duty and tax structures based on engine capacity, vehicle age, and valuation benchmarks. The process emphasizes digital documentation, traceability of funds, and standardized clearance timelines.
Safeguards are built in to prevent commercial exploitation, while safety, environmental, and roadworthiness standards remain enforceable at import. Overall, the Gift Scheme reflects a balanced policy approach—supporting consumer choice and remittances while protecting revenue integrity and regulatory discipline.
Note: Final notifications will specify exact eligibility, duty slabs, vehicle age limits, and procedural requirements.
