The federal excise charge (FED) on cigarettes has been highly suggested by the World Bank (WB).

According to the most recent “Pakistan Development Update” report from the World Bank, applying the existing premium cigarette rate (Rs. 16.50 per cigarette) to standard cigarettes would result in a sizable income increase of 0.4 per cent of GDP.

According to the research, federal excise tax revenue on cigarettes is not being collected to its full potential. In FY21, Pakistan’s federal excise duty revenue totalled 0.5 per cent of GDP. Cigarette taxes were the main cause of this, accounting for 0.19 per cent of GDP, which has been largely stable in recent years.

A dual rate is used to tax cigarettes. If regular cigarettes were charged at the same rate as premium cigarettes (Rs. 16.50 per cigarette), a sizeable revenue increase of 0.4 per cent of GDP could be realized.
