== Federal Board of Revenue == The Federal Board of Revenue (more commonly known by its initials as FBR) is the semi-autonomous, supreme federal agency of Pakistan that is responsible for auditing, enforcing and collecting revenue for the government of Pakistan.〔(Welcome to Federal Board of Revenue! Revenue Division Pakistan )〕 FBR has the responsibility for (i) for'mulation and administration of fiscal policies, (ii) levy and collection of federal taxes and (iii) quasi-judicial function of hearing of appeals. FBR is estimated to be the largest federal bureaucracy in Pakistan. As the agency conducts audit of taxpayers regularly, it's regarded as the guardian of national treasury in Pakistan. FBR primarily operates through its main collection arms, its field formations, the Regional Tax Offices (RTOs) and Large Taxpayer Units (LTUs) across the country. FBR has two major wings: the Inland Revenue Service (Income Tax Department) which brings in about 54% of FBR's total collection and Customs Wing now called as Pakistan Customs Service. Mostly in the media, the acronym 'FBR' is also often mentioned when speaking in relation to Inland Revenue Officers (previously Income Tax Department officials) in Pakistan. Income Tax Officers (now Inland Revenue Officers) are considered some of the very powerful officers in the country. For the purpose of collection of revenue and pursuing tax evaders, FBR's powers & functions also include but are not limited to: carrying out inquiries and audits/investigations into the tax affairs, commanding arrests, attachment as well as public auction of movable and immovable assets of a non-compliant. Tariq Bajwa is the current chairman of FBR; he was appointed by Prime Minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif after May 2013 election. The seat became vacant after the retirement of Ansar Javed who was a Grade 22 officer of the IRS. Tariq Bajwa does not originally belong to IRS or PCS cadre. 〔http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/asianet/130411/ansar-javed-assumes-charge-chairman-fbr〕 〔http://www.nation.com.pk/pakistan-news-newspaper-daily-english-online/national/11-Apr-2013/ansar-new-fbr-chairman〕 〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=http://hrms.fbr.gov.pk/Uploads/2013/Dec/2931-IR-I-201312242013_71726_PM.pdf )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Federal Board of Revenue (Pakistan)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
