On Saturday, the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) issued a directive instructing taxpayers to use the IRIS tax returns portal for the verification of tax deductions, instead of the previously used Maloomat portal. The change comes as part of the FBR’s efforts to streamline tax processes and improve transparency for taxpayers.
In an official statement, the FBR announced that all relevant information regarding tax deductions has already been made available on the IRIS portal. The IRIS system, which serves as the central platform for filing tax returns, will now also support taxpayers in verifying any deductions made during the fiscal year. This development is expected to simplify the tax filing process by centralizing essential information on one platform, making it more accessible and user-friendly for individuals and businesses.
The FBR’s move to consolidate services under the IRIS portal aligns with its broader goal of promoting digitalization and improving the ease of doing business in Pakistan. By utilizing the IRIS portal, taxpayers will not only be able to verify their deductions but will also have access to a comprehensive range of services, including filing returns, accessing tax records, and submitting queries.
Taxpayers are encouraged to visit the IRIS tax returns portal and ensure their tax-related information is up-to-date and accurate. The FBR’s statement reassured that the updated system is designed to offer a seamless and efficient experience for all users, helping to reduce errors and enhance the accuracy of tax documentation.
This update marks a significant step towards greater convenience and efficiency in Pakistan’s tax system, reflecting the FBR’s commitment to embracing modern technological solutions.
