Consumer Protection
As a consumer in Pakistan, you have certain rights and protections under the law. These rights are designed to ensure that you are treated fairly and can make informed decisions when purchasing goods or services. The Consumer Protection Laws in Pakistan are separate in each federating unit.
In Islamabad, The Consumer Protection Act, 1995 is the main piece of legislation that outlines your rights as a consumer in Pakistan. Under this law, you have the right to:
● Receive accurate and complete information about the goods or services you are purchasing, including their price, quality, and features
● Be protected against deceptive or fraudulent practices, such as false advertising or bait-and-switch tactics
● Seek a refund, repair, or replacement if the goods or services you purchase do not meet the standards set out in the law
● File a complaint with the relevant authorities if you feel your consumer rights have been violated
In addition to the Consumer Protection Act, there are also other laws and regulations in Pakistan that protect the rights of consumers. These include the Competition Act, of 2010, which regulates anticompetitive conduct in the marketplace, and the Weights and Measures Act, 1976, which ensures that products are sold in the correct quantity and at the advertised price.
