The way people shop has changed a lot in Pakistan and around the world because more and more people are using the internet to buy things. Because of this, the government is thinking about putting taxes on digital platforms. This idea comes from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which gives advice to countries about money matters.
Recently, Pakistan and the IMF agreed on a plan to review how things are going with the money in the country. They also talked about making a new plan for the future. One idea they talked about is putting taxes on online shops to help collect more money.
The plan says that online shops that have a big role in how people buy things will have to pay taxes on the things they sell, even if the shops are not in Pakistan. This could include things like a sales tax or a value-added tax.
