SRB POS integration for Sindh restaurants
SRB POS integration connects your restaurant's point-of-sale to the Sindh Revenue Board's online integration system, reporting invoices automatically under your own SRB registration. Kliovo Dine handles the connection and the offline queue — you provide the credentials. No file uploads at month-end, no separate portal to log into, no manual reconciliation between your till and what SRB sees.
Sindh restaurant tax: 15% standard, 8% by card
Under the Sindh Finance Act 2025 (Section 8(1) and Second Schedule Part-II, S/N 4, covering tariff headings 633/634 for food and beverage serving services), Sindh restaurants charge 15% standard sales tax, with an 8% rate on payments made by debit card, credit card, mobile wallet, or QR scan — with no input tax credit available on the 8% rate. The Sindh Finance Act 2026 left these rates unchanged, so the numbers below hold going into the new fiscal year. If you've seen 13% quoted anywhere, that was the rate before July 2024 and is no longer current — a figure worth correcting before it ends up on a customer-facing menu or receipt template.
No input tax credit on this rate. On a Rs 5,000 bill, that's Rs 400 tax — total Rs 5,400.
On the same Rs 5,000 bill, that's Rs 750 tax — total Rs 5,750.
Rates current as of July 2026. The same logic applies here as across the border in Punjab — a card tap costs the customer less tax than cash, and it's worth mentioning at the counter.
Does any of this describe you?
SRB online integration is mandatory under the Sindh Sales Tax Special Procedure (Online Integration of Business) Rules 2022 (Notification SRB-3-4/03/2022) for restaurants that meet any one of these conditions. Meeting just one is enough to trigger the requirement — it doesn't take a combination, and turnover alone can qualify you even if none of the other five apply.
The turnover threshold was reduced from Rs 10 million to Rs 5 million by Notification SRB-3-4/42/2023 — the lower figure is current.
Small-restaurant exemption
Restaurants with annual turnover up to Rs 5 million (raised from Rs 2.5 million by the Sindh Finance Act 2025) can qualify for an exemption from SRB registration — unless they're air-conditioned, mall-located, a hotel restaurant, a franchise, or run more than one branch. Any of those disqualifies the exemption regardless of turnover.
Delivery platforms now collect the tax on aggregator orders
As of 16 July 2025 (SRB-3-4/47/2025), food delivery platforms are designated SRB collection agents for restaurant orders placed through them. The tax rate itself hasn't changed — 15% cash, 8% card, wallet, or QR. What it means in practice: the platform collects and remits SRB tax on the orders that come through its app, while your direct dine-in, takeaway, and WhatsApp orders still need to report through your own POS via SRB integration. Two channels, two reporting paths — Kliovo Dine only ever needs to handle the second one, since the platform is responsible for its own orders.
How Kliovo Dine connects to SRB
Kliovo Dine connects to your restaurant's own SRB registration — you provide your credentials, and invoices report to SRB in real time under your registration. Kliovo is not a licensed SRB integrator and holds no separate regulatory status of its own; we're the POS layer that talks to the registration you already hold.
Your credentials, your registration
You add your SRB credentials once during setup. Every invoice after that reports under your own registration — Kliovo never becomes the registered party.
Offline queue
If the portal is down or your connection drops mid-service, invoices are stored locally and synced automatically once you're back online. No sale is ever blocked.
No new hardware
Works with the standard 80mm thermal printers most restaurants already have at the counter. No special terminal, no separate device to manage.
What setup actually looks like
Four steps, no separate compliance project.
Add your SRB credentials
Enter the registration details you already hold with SRB — no new application, no separate account with Kliovo.
Kliovo Dine POS runs as normal
Counter and table orders are entered exactly as before. Nothing changes in how your staff take a sale.
Every invoice reports to SRB in real time
As the sale closes, the invoice is transmitted to SRB under your registration — no batching, no end-of-day upload.
Offline sales queue and sync automatically
If the connection drops, invoices are held locally and reported the moment connectivity returns.
