Asalmoalikom dear friend
After 60 days you have to pay tax, for getting more time its common practice people use one sim slot for lets say 59 days and put sim in other slot so it will be used for more 60 days.
Hum pagal hain jo itna tax dy is se axha hai 10-15 hazar k phone he lelo sim k leay
Good answer back in return of this difficulty with firm
arguments and explaining all regarding that.
