Repatriation could be further enhanced by lengthening the repatriation period to 180 days
Reform ID		F535
Description		The repatriation period for export proceeds was reduced to 120 days under SBP Circular No. 01 of 2022, responding to foreign exchange reserve pressures at the time. However, this shortened timeline constrained the legitimate business operations of exporters particularly those dealing with long-payment-cycle buyers or operating in industries where settlement periods commonly exceed 120 days, effectively penalizing compliant exporters.
