The National Board of Revenue (NBR) has decided to hold a ‘Meet-the-Business’ session on the second Wednesday of every month to strengthen trade facilitation through direct stakeholder engagement.
The first session will be held on September 10 at 3pm at the NBR headquarters, according to a press release.
The platform will allow business representatives to directly share field-level concerns related to customs, income tax and VAT with the NBR chairman and members.
NBR officials said the discussions will help the board have a better understanding of operational challenges and work out effective solutions to improve revenue administration and trade services.
Business representatives from different sectors are expected to attend and provide inputs on streamlining procedures and addressing sector-specific issues.
