Why is it Important to Register your Device with PTA?

Registering your device with PTA is vitally important. Owing to the implemented policies by the government, any imported device brought to Pakistan needs to be verified with PTA first. This initiative is to avoid the illegal use of mobile phones across the country. Moreover, as per the former practices followed locally, there was no tax regulation on imported devices. With PTA coming into action, all the mobile devices are now bound to be PTA compliant for legal usage in Pakistan. It is very simple to register your iPhone 12 with PTA. However, for any device to be PTA compliant, you need to first perform the PTA IMEI check to get started. Please note that PTA tax is payable for all the imported mobile devices to be used in Pakistan. If you are purchasing a phone locally, your device will most likely be already registered with PTA.
