Arbani Relay
FBR digital invoicing, without the paperwork.
Pakistan's FBR e-invoicing mandate requires eligible businesses to report sales digitally, in real time. Arbani Relay handles the reporting — built to FBR's own technical specification — so you can keep selling the way you already do.
How Arbani Relay works
Upload a spreadsheet
No manual re-entry. Send your sales data as a spreadsheet, and Arbani turns it into compliant invoices.
Connect through the API
Submit invoices automatically from your own system using a tenant API key.
Review & track
FBR reference numbers, QR codes and submission status for every invoice, in one dashboard.
Compliance, handled precisely.
How Relay connects to FBR
When you register for FBR's Digital Invoicing system, you choose between connecting through PRAL directly (free) or through a paid licensed integrator. Relay is built for the PRAL path — the one most businesses use — submitting through your own PRAL credentials to FBR's gateway, automatically following whichever environment your registration is in.
Tax computed automatically
Sales tax — including the additional tax that applies when a buyer isn't registered — is calculated against FBR's own published rates, kept in sync with FBR's reference data.
Every submission tracked
Each invoice carries its FBR reference number and QR code, with a full submission history so you always know what was reported and when.
Multiple ways in
Upload a spreadsheet, or connect your own system through a tenant-scoped API key — both go through the same validation and tax computation.
Built by someone who's worked inside manufacturing operations.
Arbani Relay comes from 15+ years of experience, including 12 years of hands-on experience within the manufacturing industry — not a startup guessing at compliance requirements. The FBR e-invoicing integration is built to handle real transaction volume, with pricing and support that make sense for an SME, not an enterprise budget.
Simple, volume-based pricing.
Priced by how many invoices you report each month — no per-user pricing. FBR's Digital Invoicing system and PRAL's own integration are free to use; this fee is entirely for Arbani Relay's software and support.
Base
Up to 50 invoices / mo
Growth
51–200 invoices / mo
Pro
201–500 invoices / mo
One-time setup & onboarding fee: PKR 25,000 — covers master data upload and system configuration. Billed once, separate from the monthly plan above.
Questions
Do I need to change how I sell?
No. You keep invoicing the way you do now. Arbani Relay handles the FBR reporting behind it.
What if I don't have technical staff?
Most customers start with the spreadsheet upload — no integration required on day one. You can connect through the API later, when it makes sense.
Is this connected directly to FBR?
Yes. Invoices are submitted to FBR's Digital Invoicing gateway, built against FBR's own published technical specification.
How is my data handled?
Your invoice data is used to generate compliant FBR submissions and to give you a record you can review at any time. For specifics on hosting and security for your business, talk to us.
Does Arbani Relay work with my existing POS or billing system?
Relay connects through a spreadsheet upload or a tenant-scoped API, so it works alongside most POS and billing systems already in use. Talk to us to confirm compatibility with your specific setup.
What does Arbani Relay cost?
Pricing is based on how many invoices you report each month, plus a one-time setup fee — see the pricing above.
