ATL Status Finder

The Active Taxpayer List (ATL) is a database maintained by the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) that contains the names of individuals and businesses who have filed their income tax returns for the current tax year. Being on the ATL indicates tax compliance and provides various benefits including lower withholding tax rates.

The FBR updates the ATL regularly. Generally, it's updated after the tax filing deadline for each tax year. However, if you file your return after the deadline, your name may be added to the ATL within a few days to weeks after filing and verification.

If you're not on the ATL, you'll be considered a "non-filer" and will be subject to higher withholding tax rates on various transactions such as banking, property, and vehicle purchases. Additionally, you may face difficulties in accessing certain financial services and could be subject to penalties from the FBR.

You can check your ATL status by entering your CNIC or NTN number in the search box above. Alternatively, you can visit the FBR's official website or use the FBR Tax Asaan mobile app. Our tool provides a convenient way to check your status and download the information as a PDF.

Yes, you can file your tax return after the deadline, but you may be subject to penalties for late filing. However, once you file your return and it's verified, your name will be added to the ATL, and you'll start enjoying the benefits of being an active taxpayer.
