If you found us on Google as IMAAR Associates but arrived at a website called imaarinternational.com, you are in exactly the right place. This article explains the relationship between the two names, and how clients outside Pakistan — and Pakistanis living abroad — work with us from anywhere in the world.

IMAAR Associates and IMAAR International: one firm, two names

IMAAR Associates is a private limited company incorporated with SECP based in Gulberg III, Lahore, Pakistan, with 16 years of experience in taxation, company registration, accounting, payroll, legal documentation and business advisory. It is the firm's primary registered brand and the name on our Google Business Profile.

IMAAR International is the global business division of IMAAR Associates. It is the brand through which we serve clients beyond Pakistan's borders. Both names belong to the same organisation, the same partners and the same team — with identical professional standards and the same commitment to confidentiality. IMAAR International is not a separate or unrelated company; it is simply how IMAAR Associates operates internationally.

Who IMAAR International is built for

Our international division was created to serve people and businesses who need professional services in Pakistan but are not physically present here:

  • Overseas Pakistanis managing property, tax filings, inheritance matters or investments back home
  • Foreign investors setting up or expanding a business in Pakistan
  • Startups and SMEs abroad that need a registered presence in Pakistan
  • Multinational companies requiring local compliance, accounting or payroll support
  • Non-resident individuals who need NTN registration, tax returns or FBR representation

Services available to international clients

Everything IMAAR Associates offers domestically is available to international clients through IMAAR International, handled remotely with secure document exchange:
