Pakistan is resisting an 18% sales tax on electric vehicles proposed under its Auto Policy 2026–31, highlighting tension between international financial commitments, such as those to the IMF, and national industrial growth priorities focused on long-term development, investment, and technology transfer.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Micromobility.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You need to factor in how Pakistan’s fight to control EV tax rules reveals a wider split between external funding pressures and local industrial ambition. Any mobility tech or manufacturing plan now must navigate unstable tax policies and uncertain investment incentives in Pakistan.
