Under the Customs Act, 1969 and the Customs Agents Licensing Rules, 2001, a licensed customs clearing agent acts as the authorized statutory broker between the importer/exporter and Pakistan Customs. King Agency (Licence #1064) verifies shipping and commercial documents, determines statutory HS Code classifications, files electronic Goods Declarations (GDs) in WeBOC / Pakistan Single Window (PSW), attends customs examination at port terminals, and secures official out-of-charge clearance.
We provide comprehensive customs clearance across all Karachi sea and air terminals: Karachi Port (East Wharf, West Wharf, SAPT, KICT, PICT), Port Muhammad Bin Qasim (QICT), and the Air Freight Unit (AFU) at Jinnah International Airport Karachi.
The Pakistan Single Window integrates commercial banks, customs, and other government agencies (such as DPP, PSQCA, and EPA). Upon arrival of shipping documents and electronic manifest (IGM/EGM), a statutory Goods Declaration is submitted. The Risk Management System (RMS) routes cargo to Green Channel (immediate assessment), Yellow Channel (document scrutiny), or Red Channel (physical examination at port) before duty settlement and cargo release.
Standard requirements include: (1) Commercial Invoice, (2) Packing List, (3) Bill of Lading (B/L) or Air Waybill (AWB), (4) Certificate of Origin, (5) Delivery Order (D/O) from the shipping carrier, (6) Sales Tax Registration & NTN certificate, and (7) any applicable SRO concession certificate or import permit.
Industrial importers importing raw materials or capital machinery for in-house manufacturing benefit from specific tax concessions, including exemption from the 3% Additional Sales Tax under the Twelfth Schedule to the Sales Tax Act, 1990, and reduced Advance Income Tax rates (1% to 2% under Part I/II vs 6% for commercial importers under Part III of the Twelfth Schedule to the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001).
