Pakistan Revenue Automation (Pvt.) Ltd. (PRAL) successfully organized an informative seminar at the Sarhad Chamber of Commerce & Industry, aimed at enhancing awareness about the Federal Board of Revenue’s (FBR) Digital Invoicing System and encouraging its adoption among local businesses. The session brought together industry stakeholders, business representatives, and technology experts to better understand the operational, compliance, and efficiency benefits of the new system.
The event was led by PRAL representatives Abid Naeem, Farheen Azhar, and Umair Siddique, who delivered in-depth presentations on the importance of digital invoicing in promoting transparency, efficiency, and economic documentation in Pakistan. They highlighted how the system is designed to make compliance simpler for businesses of all sizes while strengthening the overall tax ecosystem. The speakers also emphasized that PRAL, as an FBR-licensed integrator, is providing complete integration services entirely free of charge to help companies seamlessly connect with the FBR platform without incurring additional costs.
During the discussion, the team explained how businesses can register for the digital invoicing system, the steps involved in integration, and how the shift can result in long-term operational benefits. The focus remained on how digital invoicing supports efficient record-keeping, faster reporting, and improved tax compliance, ultimately benefiting both the private sector and the national economy. PRAL’s representatives reassured participants that their technical team is available to assist at every step of the process, ensuring smooth onboarding for companies transitioning from traditional invoicing methods.
Following the presentations, a dynamic question-and-answer session allowed attendees to seek clarifications on practical implementation and address their concerns. Business owners actively engaged with the speakers, raising queries about system requirements, timelines for compliance, and potential challenges during the transition. Participants expressed appreciation for the clarity provided by PRAL’s experts, noting that such direct interactions with solution providers are crucial for understanding and successfully adopting new technologies.
PRAL reaffirmed its commitment to driving digital transformation across Pakistan’s business landscape through continued awareness efforts. The organization views digital invoicing not only as a compliance requirement but as an opportunity for businesses to modernize their operations, reduce paperwork, and operate more transparently in an increasingly digital economy. By offering free-of-charge integration services, PRAL aims to remove financial barriers and encourage swift adoption among businesses that may otherwise be hesitant to invest in new systems.
The Sarhad Chamber of Commerce & Industry lauded the initiative, acknowledging the importance of such awareness programs in bridging the gap between policy directives and practical implementation. The event also served as a networking platform for stakeholders to share their perspectives on the future of digital compliance in Pakistan.
PRAL confirmed that this session is part of an ongoing nationwide series aimed at engaging business communities in different regions. More seminars are planned in the coming months to extend the reach of this initiative, ensuring that companies across Pakistan are well-prepared to comply with FBR’s digital invoicing requirements and contribute to the country’s economic digitization efforts.
