The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has introduced a new incentive aimed at promoting tax compliance. Individuals who report fake Point of Sale (POS) receipts from restaurants and retailers can now earn a reward of Rs. 20,000.
How to Verify POS Receipts through FBR’s Tax Asaan Mobile App
According to the FBR, individuals can verify POS receipts by scanning the QR code through the Tax Asaan mobile app. This allows consumers to check the authenticity of receipts issued by restaurants, retailers, and other establishments.
If a receipt cannot be verified, consumers have the option to report it as fake. The FBR has incorporated a geo-tracking feature, enabling immediate reporting for enhanced transparency.
Reward Details for Reporting Fake Receipts
The reward of Rs. 20,000 is intended to encourage public participation in the fight against tax fraud. This initiative seeks to address issues with unregistered sales and fraudulent invoicing, helping to boost the national revenue.
How to Report Fake Receipts
The FBR has detailed the reporting process on its official website, offering guidance on how to identify and report unauthorized POS receipts.
