Thanks for your help.
Getting a refund is a near impossible task. Even if you are lucky enough to get it, the FBR people demand 30% as bribe.
Undertaking is given but many customers still want the Bill of Entry. As proof, they cite Circular 05 of 2002 dated 11/04/2002 which states that the payer may require furnishing of import document such as original Bill of Entry.
This is an unfair law wherein the commercial importer pays 4% at import stage and 3.5% at sales stage.
