1. Currency, Pricing & Validity
Project fees are quoted in US Dollars (USD) by default. Domestic engagements within Pakistan are quoted and billed in Pakistani Rupees (PKR) at the rate declared on the official invoice. All quotes remain valid for 30 days from date of issuance. Prices exclude applicable local taxes, bank wire surcharges, and pass-through infrastructure costs unless explicitly stated.

3. Invoicing Cadence & Net Terms
Fixed-price projects require an advance deposit (30% to 50%) to lock engineering capacity, followed by staged milestone invoices upon deliverable acceptance. Engineering retainers and managed SLA services are invoiced in advance on the 1st of each service month. Standard payment terms are 7 calendar days from invoice date.
4. Overdue Invoices & Service Suspension
Automated payment reminders are sent 3 days prior to due date and immediately upon due date. If an invoice remains unsettled 14 calendar days past due, active engineering work, staging access, and deployment pipelines will be paused until the ledger is brought current. Resumption of work is subject to team scheduling capacity.
5. Refund & Cancellation Terms
Milestone payments for accepted deliverables and delivered code commits are non-refundable. For contracts terminated prior to project initiation, advance deposits will be refunded less payment processing gateway costs within 7 to 10 business days. For scoped disputes, our billing committee conducts an audit against project timesheets and git commit logs within 5 business days.
6. Withholding Tax & Pass-Through Infrastructure
Where local regulatory withholding applies, clients must furnish valid official withholding tax certificates (CPR) within 15 calendar days of payment deduction. Cloud hosting, domain registrations, software licenses, and third-party API costs are billed at cost and are non-refundable once incurred on client behalf.
Corporate Anti-Fraud Declaration
All legitimate invoices originate solely from our verified domain @tauqeermustafa.tech. Corporate bank accounts are exclusively registered under Tauqeer Mustafa Inc. or Tauqeer Mustafa. Our employees will never request wire transfers to unlisted personal accounts or mobile wallets over chat apps.
