Property Registration Cost Calculator Punjab
Calculate the total cost of registering a property in Punjab, including stamp duty (1%), FBR advance tax (1.25% filer / 2.5% non-filer), registration fee, PLRA charges, and other fees based on 2026 rates.
Introduction
Registering a property in Punjab involves multiple taxes and fees. Many buyers are surprised by the total cost, which can add 3-5% to the property price. The structure changed in 2026: stamp duty was reduced to a uniform 1%, while FBR advance tax under Section 236K was revised to 1.25% for filers and 2.5% for non-filers [citation:9]. This calculator helps you budget accurately.
