remittance to pak

I have used dollar east service to send money to pakistan in past.Wanted to ask fellow readers what is the best method to send via bank in uk?

Info replied on Thursday, January 22, 2009 02:28 AM PST 

If recipient can open an account with Citibank in Pakistan you could transfer money from your Citibank (UK) for free.

or you could try HBL

BOSS, SEND MONEY VIA NATIONAL BANK, NO CHARGE PLUS YOU WILL HELP THE COUNTRY. THEY JUST COVERT $$$ INTO RUPEE AND SEND TO ANY BANK IN PAKISTAN.

adnan replied on Thursday, January 22, 2009 01:30 PM PST 

hi

if we send money to some one in pakistan in his bank account from saudi arabia through speedcash will it be considered as foreign remittance for the individual in paksitan , as last time i sent money to my brother in his account in HBL, his bank told him that they received money from MCB so he is not entitled to get any benifits in tax
pl clarify if some one has any idea about it

limo replied on Thursday, January 22, 2009 06:03 PM PST 

Adnan, simply remitting money to someone's account does not mean that the beneficiary’s money has become tax-exempt. This privilege is for those who either work abroad and send money to their accounts through bank in Pakistan or possess dual nationality and send money to their accounts staying abroad. Hope it helps.

Information needed plase

Could someone from Islamabad please let me know how much a house built on a plot size of 50x25 in sector I10-4 is worth at the moment? The house I am interested in is double story but the plot is not fully covered (old style build), it needs modernisaton. Also if you could be kind enough to inform me of the rental value of such a house as it is + if I were to cover the whole plot (pillar design) how much that would increase the rental value by?
Thanks in advance

Transfering money from Pakistan

Dear Readers

I would like to get some advice on how to bring money back over from Pakistan to the UK. I have always sent money to Pakistan and it is the first time i'm bringing it back.
I would appreciate any information you could provide in this regard.

Hi replied on Tuesday, January 20, 2009 07:04 PM PST 

Ask any politicians, they are sending billions out of Pakistan to every country of world. ;)

from Uk replied on Tuesday, January 20, 2009 07:50 PM PST 

If you know someone who has CitiBank account in UK then its easy, pop into any CitiBank branch in Pakistan and deposit the money in that account. they wont charge you for this

Or

Go to any Money Exchange and they will arrange this for you

I recommend the first option

Zahid Aslam replied on Tuesday, January 20, 2009 08:00 PM PST 

Thankyou for your advice have you used the citi bank method before and are there any charges and how long does it take to transfer the money across.

waji replied on Tuesday, January 20, 2009 08:24 PM PST 

I used to get money from Pk to oversea's by Kalia Khanani Exchange... but unfortunetly ...

from UK replied on Tuesday, January 20, 2009 08:30 PM PST 

i use it all the time, its an instant transfer if you pay deposit to that account,

no charges at all

Jameel replied on Wednesday, January 21, 2009 01:18 AM PST 

when you get money Back to UK you will have to file Tax on it, it depends in which income Bracket you are, most people lose 20% to 33% of their money.
If you dont want to spend it in UK then Other option is to let it stay in pakistan in FC, or tranfer to offshore account or Deposit is National savings in pakistan. Most of people who will need money in Pakistan let it stay in Pak as there is not fun of Paying Tax again and again.

Hameed replied on Wednesday, January 21, 2009 01:54 AM PST 

I seriously dought if there is any tax that you have to pay on the money that you transfter from another country. You pay tax in the country where the money came from. At least that is the case in USA not sure about UK.

If that is the case that would be dis-insetive for foreign investors.

abj replied on Wednesday, January 21, 2009 03:00 PM PST 

Not sure about other countries, but in United States, if resident or citizen, you pay tax on Income earned in any country. Money in a bank account is not considered income, but Interest on that money is considered income, and is taxable, no matter what country you earned that interest in. Short answer, just tarnsfering your money into the US is not taxable. Income is taxable, money in the bank is not. You have 10,000 in a bank account, and it earns 100 dollars interest, you pay tax on the 100 interest only. If money is in a non interest bearing account, you dont pay any taxes on principle regardless of amount.


I am not sure about UK taxes, but have serious doubts they would tax money like take away 20% to 30% if one tarnsfers any money from a foreign country. Not sure how many people will transfer money to the UK, knowing they would take away their own hard earned money and would be a total counter productive measure. Thats telling investors to please stay away from UK. I would hope the UK govt. is a lot more intelligent than that, but again, "just my opinion, and dont know that for a fact how UK tax system works". A logical thing, and a thought process behind policy makers in a developed country would be to encourage investors to bring in money to the UK, get it invested to create jobs for the UK people, and then collect taxes on sales and profit.

limo replied on Thursday, January 22, 2009 06:18 PM PST 

abj, the principal ammount held in a bank once excedes a certain limit becomes liable to tax.Probably what you are talking about is income tax,not property or wealth tax.

Habib replied on Thursday, January 22, 2009 07:41 PM PST 

If your Bank balance increases by transfer of money form Pakistan you will have to answer how you got this money, It is income? is it heritage? etc You will have to pay tax accordingly each have different rates. If you could convince that i tranferred money to Pakistan and kept for while there and same money I am tranferring Back then you will have to show the Proof.

Zahid Aslam replied on Friday, January 23, 2009 01:18 AM PST 

I am already selling my land in Pakistan at a very low discounted price and I dont want to pay further taxes. Do Citi bank ask all these questions because my brother sent tohe money to Pakistan through money exchanges and it will be diffcult to prove the money that was sent over. So could From UK sahib explain the procedure of citi bank.

abj replied on Friday, January 23, 2009 11:44 AM PST 

Limo,
In United states, you dont have any wealth tax, and if there is such a thing, it does not apply to the money in the bank. If you are referring to the Capital gains Tax, thats on stocks or certain short sold transactions. Your comment may be true for Pakistan, or some other country. Income Tax on Income, Sales Tax on Sales, Property tax is on Property, and capital gains on dividents or certain transactions. Putting Tax on money held in a bank account is not a US concept. It may be true for pakistan, I doubt it for UK (not sure), and am sure of US, its not the case.

The banks have no right to ask you where you got the money. It is a private busienss and has no authority to ask you these questions. Hwoever, if you transfer the money into a forign acccount, the Tax dept. in any country can ask you, if they have reason to suspect tax was evaded. Your bank account should be in proportion to your declared income on your tax return. If you try to evade taxes, it is a crime, and if caught, the worry is not just about paying tax and penalty, but unfortunately a long jail time as well.

Present Status of Sector D-12

There is hardly any development work going on in sector D-12 and neither had it looked like it is going to start soon. But the staff on site does admit that the dispute between CDA and contractor is almost resolved When I asked the question to the deputy project manager of Ayub Brothers Co. Mr Azam to explain “ resolved “ he and two staff member of CDA said to assume 70 : 30.

I asked when you are actually going to mobilizes on site and bringing all of your crew and machinery he said within this week. The contractor admits that all area of D-12 is acquired apart from the two houses coming in the way of south service road.

I visited this sector after almost 8 months and the difference from then to now is almost nothing if there is a development there are certain areas got washed away as well by rain

I doubt the capability of contractor and believe he will take much more then a year for remaining works unless he has come back with a total different attitude.

I will keep updating if there is any such improvement. :flg

Dear CMY

Are all these plots available with posession & construction can be started immediately?

Farid replied on Tuesday, January 20, 2009 07:51 PM PST 

Question should be, if these plots are really in control of CMY or coming from 5 different hands.

Rehman- Qatar replied on Wednesday, January 21, 2009 01:32 PM PST 

Farid:

It does not matter whether all these plots are in CMY hands or not. Generally , the property dealers need not have all the plots "in hand" to quote. In Property buisenss, dealers always keep in
contact with other dealers.

Needless to say, LRE is one of the active real estate dealers in DHA lahore.

Pardesi:
CMY would be better able to comment. According to my knowledge, These blocks in phase 6 are now available for possession from Sept 1, 08 and construction should be done within 3 years.

CMY replied on Wednesday, January 21, 2009 09:40 PM PST 

Perdesi bhai all these plots are possessionn area plots.

Farid sahib not all plots are in my control. A buyer dont care if plot is in my control or not. He want to get best possible price.
