The opening session was chaired by Qaiser Iqbal, FBR Director General for International Taxes. He welcomed the delegates and said he hoped the proposed agreement would strengthen economic ties and contribute to the development of both countries.
The delegations discussed all outstanding issues from the first round, held in Islamabad from March 28 to 30, 2016, and presented their respective positions. They agreed that unresolved matters would be discussed at a third round in Kabul, Afghanistan, on dates to be mutually agreed.
