Value used: FBR ruling 2070/2026, used.

PTA tax on a used Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is about Rs 25,139 on passport and Rs 29,506 on CNIC for a filer. Both use US$260, FBR's value in its used-phone ruling 2070/2026 of 21 April 2026.

New S22 Ultra sets are valued under an older ruling, 1834/2023 of 6 December 2023, which still applies to Samsung because FBR's 2025 ruling replaced it for new iPhones only. Its 128GB value is about three times the used one.

At Rs 276.82 per US$ (State Bank of Pakistan rate of 23 October 2026). CNIC figures include 4% additional customs duty.

New values from Ruling 1834/2023: US$772 for 8GB+128GB, and US$856 for both 12GB+256GB and 12GB+512GB. The ruling prints US$420 for the 12GB+1TB set, lower than the 128GB set, so compare that row with the value on your PSID before relying on it.

Used S22 Ultra against used S23 Ultra

FBR values a used S23 Ultra at US$305. Both phones sit in the US$200 to 350 slab, so they pay the same Rs 8,800 regulatory duty and Rs 1,800 levy, and on CNIC the same Rs 970 withholding tax for a filer.

Only the sales tax differs. On passport the S22 Ultra is Rs 25,139 and the S23 Ultra Rs 27,381, a little over Rs 2,000 apart. The S23 Ultra PTA tax works through its own two values.

When the new value applies to a used phone

Ruling 1834/2023 has a note that used or refurbished phones brought in by passengers are also assessed at its listed values. So a used S22 Ultra registered on your passport may be valued at US$772 for 128GB, not US$260.

That changes the bill a great deal: Rs 91,426 on passport and Rs 113,611 on CNIC for a filer, more than three and a half times the used figure. Check the value on your PSID and pick the matching row in the calculator's value list.
