A Withholding Tax Certificate in Pakistan is an important document confirming tax deductions made at source.
It serves as proof of tax withheld on income such as salaries, contracts, or services and can be used for submitting tax returns to the Federal Board of Revenue or claiming tax credits.
According to the FBR, “If Income Tax is withheld by someone from payments made to you, then, section 164 of income Tax Ordinance 2001, requires every withholding agent to provide to the person from whom the tax has been deducted, a certificate that such amount has been collected as tax from that person”.
The top tax authority said the Withholding Tax Certificate must be attached to the income tax return as proof of payment of tax.
You can obtain your tax withholding certificates from your withholding authorities, e.g employers, banks etc.
