What are the Requirements of Import and Export License in Pakistan?

In order to encourage trade and bolster the economy, the government of Pakistan has introduced the Pakistan Single Window Act 2021. This law aims to facilitate individuals and entities involved in trade and transport by allowing them to lodge standardized information and documents with a single-entry point to fulfil import, export and transit related regulatory requirements in Pakistan without having to submit the same data more than once. Pakistan Single Window is the most efficient and hassle-free way to register for an import or export license in Pakistan. The following documents are required for processing registration on Pakistan Single Window:
