July 24, 2025(MLN): The government reviewed key policy recommendations for the regulated import of used vehicles, with a new framework expected to take effect in September 2025.

The initiative aims to introduce an automotive trade policy that supports consumer interests, strengthens regulatory oversight, and addresses long-standing industry challenges.

This emerged during a consultative meeting between the Coordinator to the Prime Minister on Commerce and the All-Pakistan Car Dealers & Importers Association (APDA), said a press release issued.

The APDA delegation shared proposals aimed at ensuring environmental and road safety compliance, such as mandatory pre-shipment inspections for emissions and structural integrity.

They also called for greater transparency in vehicle valuation, foreign exchange arrangements, and revisions to the depreciation framework to better reflect current market conditions.

Tax and tariff structures for the upcoming fiscal year were also discussed, with emphasis on the need for balanced treatment.

Furthermore, the coordinator assured participants that all relevant departments within the Ministry of Commerce would be engaged in the decision-making process and that the association’s input would be duly considered.
