At Samsung's US launch price of US$1,299.99 for 256GB, PTA tax on a Galaxy S24 Ultra is about Rs 128,125 on passport and Rs 157,650 on CNIC for a filer.
FBR's used-phone ruling of April 2026 lists Samsung phones only up to the S23 Ultra, valued at US$305. We found no FBR value for the S24 Ultra, new or used. A phone launched in January 2024 is unlikely to be valued at its full launch price in 2026, so read these figures as the top of the range.

What a lower value would mean
Because the value is the unknown here, it helps to see the tax at a few values on passport:
| Value | Slab | Passport tax |
|---|---|---|
| US$1,299.99 (launch) | Above US$700 | Rs 128,125 |
| US$701 | Above US$700 | Rs 86,599 |
| US$700 | US$500 to 700 | Rs 78,529 |
| US$500 | US$350 to 500 | Rs 43,118 |
| US$305 (S23 Ultra used value) | US$200 to 350 | Rs 27,408 |
Note the jump at US$700, where the levy doubles to Rs 16,000, and the bigger one at US$500, where sales tax rises from 18% to 25%. If you know the value on your PSID, choose "Enter value in US$" in the calculator and type it.

Galaxy S24 Ultra PTA tax questions
How much is S24 Ultra PTA tax on passport?
About Rs 128,125 if FBR uses the US$1,299.99 launch price. That is Rs 17,600 regulatory duty, Rs 94,525 sales tax at 25% and a Rs 16,000 levy. A lower FBR value would lower the sales tax part.
How much is S24 Ultra PTA tax on CNIC?
About Rs 157,650 for a filer and Rs 169,150 for a non-filer at the launch-price value. CNIC adds 4% additional customs duty and withholding tax of Rs 11,500, doubled for non-filers.
Is the S24 Ultra in FBR's used phone valuation list?
Not in Ruling 2070/2026 of April 2026. That list stops at the Galaxy S23 Ultra, S23+ and S23. Customs sets a value for unlisted models itself, so check the figure on your PSID.
Figures use the 2026-27 rates and Rs 277.31 to the US dollar. No FBR valuation ruling for this model was found, so the value is Samsung's US launch price. The PSID from DIRBS is the amount you pay.
