PTA calls for tax refunds as Pakistan tanners head for Milan

29/09/2017
Thirty tanners from Pakistan will take part in the autumn edition of Lineapelle, which takes place in Milan from October 4-6. The Pakistan Tanners Association (PTA) has received backing from the Asian country’s export promotions agency to set up an extensive national pavilion at the event.

In the build-up to Lineapelle, PTA chairman, Anjum Zafar, urged Pakistan’s ministry of commerce and ministry of finance to put in place tax refunds promised in July.

He said Pakistan’s earnings from leather-sector exports have been decreasing for three consecutive years, but insisted tax relief initiatives will help to halt the decline.
