Guide to Prize Bonds in Pakistan
Prize Bonds are a bearer type of investment security issued by the National Savings under the State Bank of Pakistan. They are highly popular among Pakistanis because the principal investment remains completely secure, while offering the chance to win substantial cash prizes through regular computerized lucky draws.
Tax Deductions (Filer vs. Non-Filer)
It is important to note that prize bond winnings are subject to withholding tax under the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) policies. As of the current fiscal year:
- Active Taxpayers (Filers): A 15% tax is deducted from the total prize money.
- Non-Filers: A heavy 30% tax is deducted from the winnings.
How to Claim Your Prize?
If your bond number matches the winning list, you can claim your prize from designated branches of the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP BSC), National Savings Centers, or your commercial bank. You will need to fill out a claim form and submit it along with your original CNIC and the winning bearer bond.
