Samsung S. 25 PTA Tax Details
After these dates, the phone will stop working with local SIM cards unless it is properly registered with the PTA.
Why is PTA registration necessary?
PTA (Pakistan Telecommunications Authority) Registration ensures that imported smartphones can be used with local networks.
Unregistered phones will be blocked and they will not be able to get cellular services in Pakistan. DIRBS (Device Registration Blocking System) Program enforces this law. The FBR (Federal Board of Revenue) has recently increased the tax on imported phones, so the latest tax rates and the latest registration rules must remain.
