Pakistan Single Window (PSW) Trade Registration Services
Mandatory digital platform registration for importers, exporters, customs clearing agents, and international traders in Pakistan.
Overview
Whether you are importing raw materials, exporting finished products, operating a customs clearing agency, or managing logistics, PSW registration is legally required to execute trade declarations, process Goods Declarations (GD), obtain regulatory LPCOs (Licenses, Permits, Certificates, and Others), and secure foreign exchange remittance approvals from commercial banks (replacing legacy Form I and Form E mechanisms).
At The Lawyers, we handle complete PSW onboarding, biometric verification coordination, banking profile linking, WeBOC role association, and portal lock resolutions—ensuring your import/export operations launch without regulatory delays.
Starting an Import/Export Business or Stuck in Customs Clearance?

What is the main difference between WeBOC and PSW?
PSW (Pakistan Single Window) is the unified national trade portal that connects importers, exporters, banks, and 22+ regulatory agencies. WeBOC (Web-Based One Customs) is the backend customs clearance system used specifically for filing Goods Declarations (GDs) and assessing customs duties. Today, you register through PSW, which automatically grants access to WeBOC functionality without needing a separate manual application.
How long does it take to complete PSW registration and profile activation?
If your FBR NTN, SECP, and banking details are completely aligned, online PSW subscription takes 24 to 48 hours following NADRA e-Sahulat biometric verification and banking profile approval by your bank.
Where do I need to go for biometric verification?
Biometric verification is completed electronically at any authorized NADRA e-Sahulat franchise across Pakistan. You simply visit the franchise with your CNIC and the PSW verification voucher issued during subscription.
Why is my bank account profile not showing on the PSW portal?
Your commercial bank must actively verify and map your business account and IBAN to the PSW financial database. Mismatches in the business title or NTN between FBR records and bank account records will delay banking profile linking.
Is a Chamber of Commerce membership mandatory for PSW registration?
While initial PSW subscription can be initiated with an NTN, obtaining an active Chamber of Commerce & Industry membership is standard commercial practice and mandatory for clearance, quota allocations, and trade verification across customs stations.
