💻 What is Your FBR Password?
Your FBR password is the login credential used to access your account on IRIS, the Federal Board of Revenue’s online portal for tax filing, NTN verification, wealth statements, and other tax-related services in Pakistan.
Without this password, you cannot submit returns, view tax records, or perform compliance tasks — making password recovery essential if you’ve forgotten it.
