Getting paid in Pakistan
The basics, with sources
Public facts from official sources, each with its date. Not advice: check with your bank.
Keeping foreign currency
IT companies (registered with PSEB or P@SHA) and freelancers can keep USD 5,000 a month or 50% of their export earnings, whichever is higher, in a special foreign currency account (ESFCA). Banks open it with your rupee account and can change the money into rupees whenever you ask.

Purpose codes
Your bank asks you once what services you sell abroad, then tags your account with a purpose code to report your payments to the State Bank of Pakistan. IT companies and freelancers no longer need to give Form R for these payments.

Exchange rate, for scale
1 USD = 276.9 PKR (US Treasury reference rate, 30 Sept 2026). The rate on the day of a payment will differ.
