Town Shops
Retailers in Bhimber's bazaar earn income arising in AJK, taxed under AJK's system. Those who also supply customers or buy from wholesalers in Pakistan proper should keep invoices showing taxes paid on the goods.
Returning Overseas Families
Families returning from the UK after years abroad often open businesses or build houses. Their foreign savings explain these investments; bank records of transfers from abroad are the key evidence. Returning residents should also consider the UK tax position of income left behind.
