Islamabad, April 19, 2023 (PPI-OT): Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif has directed the authorities concerned to immediately confiscate all the luxury vehicles being used illegally in the country despite the expiry of permission limit under Carnet-de-Passage limit. A Carnet-de-Passage is an international agreement between two countries that allows the temporary importation of a car without having to pay the custom duties.
The Prime Minister, presiding over a special meeting on the subject in Islamabad today, directed the formation of an inquiry committee to take strict action against the officials involved in misuse of the scheme. He asked the Federal Board of Revenue to compile the data of such vehicles which have completed their allowed limit under the scheme.
