巴基斯坦銀行因未繳納車輛稅而面臨旁遮普稅務部門的嚴厲批評

旁遮普邦消費稅部門向巴基斯坦 26 名銀行負責人發出嚴厲通知，因為他們忽視了對 20,000 多輛租賃車輛繳納象徵性稅款。據ETO 管理員哈立德·侯賽因·卡蘇裡(Khalid Hussain Qasoori) 稱，該部門警告稱，可能會造成嚴重後果，包括取消車輛登記、處以100% 罰款，以及可能沒收和拍賣銀行財產。該通知強調，儘管銀行從車輛承租人收到包括加價在內的每月分期付款，但仍未繳納象徵性稅款。

旁遮普邦稅務部門通知巴基斯坦銀行租賃車輛未繳稅的情況

LAHORE, Punjab, Pakistan - The Excise and Taxation Department of Punjab has issued a formal notice to 26 bank heads across Pakistan regarding the nonpayment of token taxes on over 20,000 vehicles leased through their institutions.

巴基斯坦旁遮普省拉合爾 - 旁遮普省消費稅部門已向巴基斯坦各地 26 家銀行負責人發出正式通知，稱透過其機構租賃的 20,000 多輛車輛未繳納象徵性稅款。

"The vehicle registration could be cancelled, a 100 percent fine imposed, and bank properties may be seized and auctioned if the taxes remain unpaid," warned Khalid Hussain Qasoori, ETO Admin, in a strongly worded letter sent to the banks.

ETO 管理員哈立德·侯賽因·卡蘇裡(Khalid Hussain Qasoori) 在發給銀行的一封措辭強硬的信中警告稱：「如果仍未繳納稅款，車輛登記可能會被取消，處以100% 的罰款，銀行財產可能會被沒收和拍賣。

The department emphasized that banks receive monthly installments for the leased vehicles, including markups, but have persistently failed to pay the Punjab excise's token tax or encourage their customers to do so. Despite repeated notices, meetings, and reminders disseminated via newspaper advertisements, the token tax remains outstanding.

該部門強調，銀行每月收取租賃車輛的分期付款，包括加價，但一直未能支付旁遮普消費稅的象徵性稅或鼓勵客戶這樣做。儘管透過報紙廣告多次發出通知、會議和提醒，象徵性稅仍懸而未決。

Qasoori stated that if the outstanding taxes, along with a 100 percent fine, are not settled within 14 days, strict measures will be taken. This includes the cancellation of vehicle registrations and the sealing of bank premises.

卡蘇裡表示，如果未在 14 天內付清所欠稅款以及 100% 的罰款，將採取嚴格措施。這包括取消車輛登記和查封銀行場所。

The department's letter highlights the legal obligation of banks to ensure compliance with tax regulations. It raises concerns about the potential financial and operational consequences for banks that fail to meet their tax obligations, including the loss of assets and disruption of business operations.

該部門的信件強調了銀行確保遵守稅務法規的法律義務。它引發了人們對未能履行納稅義務的銀行潛在的財務和營運後果的擔憂，包括資產損失和業務營運中斷。

The Excise and Taxation Department of Punjab is urging banks to take immediate action to address this matter and avoid the imposition of penalties. The department's determination to enforce tax compliance underscores the government's commitment to ensuring revenue collection and maintaining the integrity of the tax system.

旁遮普邦消費稅部門敦促銀行立即採取行動解決這個問題，避免受到懲罰。該部門執行稅收合規的決心突顯了政府對確保稅收和維護稅收制度完整性的承諾。

It is expected that the banks will promptly respond to the department's notice and take necessary steps to rectify the situation. The resolution of this matter will contribute to the overall health of the provincial economy and the rule of law.

希望各銀行及時回應該部門的通知，並採取必要措施進行糾正。該事項的解決，有助於全省經濟和法治的整體健康發展。
