End-to-End UIM and Tax Stamp Services for Electrical Goods, Storage Batteries and Lubricants for Federal Board of Revenue

The Federal Board of Revenue invites eligible State-Owned Entities to submit bids or proposals for end-to-end Unique Identification Marking (UIM) and tax stamp services for household electrical goods, storage batteries and lubricants. The procurement is a limited solicitation through EPADS under Rule 32(1)(f) of the Public Procurement Rules, 2026.

Technical and financial proposals must be submitted simultaneously through EPADS V1.0 using the single-stage, one-envelope procedure. Each applicant must furnish evidence of its legal status, mandate, capacity and capability to execute the assignment through its own resources, subject to the specialized-component subcontracting provision of Rule 32(1)(f).

The entire end-to-end turnkey service for all three sectors must be proposed and priced as one indivisible package, strictly in accordance with Section V. The proposed contract period is three years. Implementation, licensing and collection arrangements are subject to the applicable Sales Tax Rules, 2006 and FBR approvals. FBR proposes no payment to the service provider. The selected provider will recover the accepted, notified per-UIM fees directly from manufacturers under the applicable statutory mechanism. No separate rental, equipment, application, maintenance or software fee may be charged.

Bids must cover all three sectors, demonstrate mandatory responsiveness and price reasonability, and disclose any specialist outsourcing, which must not exceed 40% of the assigned work. The successful bid will be determined according to the requirements and evaluation criteria in Sections III and V.

A pre-bid meeting to clarify applicants’ queries will take place on 17 November 2026 at 11:30 AM in Room 358, Third Floor, FBR House, Constitution Avenue, G-5, Islamabad. Applicants may also participate virtually through Zoom using Meeting ID 918 4121 5394 and passcode 540540.
