The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has widened the footprint of its Point of Sales (POS) integration drive, bringing 12,950 additional large retailers, textile and leather businesses, and restaurants into the system by April 1, 2026, as part of efforts to document transactions in Tier-I retail and hospitality sectors. With the latest additions, the cumulative number of integrated branches and outlets across Tier-I retailers, textile/leather retailers and restaurants has climbed to 35,953, according to official data compiled by the tax authority. The bulk of the integration remains concentrated in the retail segment.
A total of 11,376 Tier-I retailers are now registered with the POS system, with their network spanning 23,784 integrated branches, reflecting the largest share of the digital monitoring expansion. In the hospitality sector, the FBR reported 1,013 registered restaurants, with 1,543 branches connected to the POS system, marking continued rollout of transaction tracking across dining outlets. The textile and leather retail category, though smaller in number of registered entities, shows a wide branch-level footprint.
The data shows 561 registered retailers in this segment, with 10,626 branches integrated into the system. Taken together, the updated figures underscore an ongoing shift toward real-time sales documentation across key consumer-facing sectors as the tax authority continues to broaden compliance coverage through POS-linked reporting.
