Imports and exports are tax-free, but many trade restrictions have been imposed on polyester staple fibers.

As a result, synthetic fiber accounts for only 18% of total raw materials in Pakistan, compared with 60% in the world.


The current tariff structure is seriously abnormal, and polyester staple fiber blended yarn is zero import duty, but polyester staple fiber as a raw material needs to pay 4.5% of the punitive import tax.


Pakistan is extremely short of polyester staple fiber.

Dewan Salmant fiber company closed down due to the overall financial problems of the group, resulting in a shortage of 38% of the available polyester staple fiber.

As a result, the price gap between local polyester staple fiber and international polyester staple fiber has expanded rapidly, resulting in the loss of 30% competitiveness of Pakistan's products.
