Structured register of government actions in the geoeconomic space — export controls, tariffs, sanctions, FDI screening, subsidies, industrial-policy laws — cross-referenced into the country, minerals, and ETF surface. Charter: docs/IPTM_CHARTER.md.
Severity 1-5 is the qualitative impact rating (1=minor, 5=structural). The bilateral-trade-grounded quant scorer is the next IPTM milestone. RBI (Register Breadth Index) is a complementary structural-breadth indicator from scripts/py/iptm/breadth.py; divergence between RBI and severity is itself informative (high-sev / low-RBI = strategic chokepoint; low-sev / high-RBI = broad but shallow). Every action has at least one primary source URL. Verify-or-don't-file. See also themes, timeline, graph, sankey, map, country exposure, sector exposure, material exposure (+ graph), weekly briefs, portfolio scan, escalation monitor, trans-shipment hubs. Internal triage tools (RSS-poller candidate feed, source-feed health) live under /admin/candidates + /admin/sources. Subscribe via Atom feed (accepts ?country=CN, ?material=lithium, ?issuer=BIS, ?type=export_control, ?etf=SOXX, ?company=NVDA, ?minSeverity=4, ?year=2026, ?q=…) or pull /api/iptm/actions.
Pakistan's Directorate General of Customs Valuation (Karachi), acting under the Federal Board of Revenue, issued Valuation Ruling No. 2035/2026 on 16 January 2026 under Section 25A of the Customs Act, 1969, fixing revised minimum customs (C&F) values for 62 models of old and used branded mobile phones (Apple, Samsung, Google Pixel, OnePlus) imported in commercial quantity without original packaging or accessories, conditional on the device having been activated at least six months before export. The revision was a downward rationalization — press reporting cites benchmark values ranging from US$25 (iPhone SE, 1st/2nd generation) up to US$460 (iPhone 15 Pro Max) — bringing declared-value floors back in line with a documented decline in global secondary-market prices for older-generation devices. Global Trade Alert logs China as the principal origin affected.
Pakistan's Directorate General of Customs Valuation (DGCV), acting under the Federal Board of Revenue, issued Valuation Ruling No. 2036/2026 on 16 January 2026 under Section 25A of the Customs Act, 1969, fixing revised minimum customs (assessable) values for imported ammunition. The ruling supersedes the prior ammunition valuation ruling (No. 1995/2025, dated 28 March 2025) after the Directorate found that declared transaction values no longer reflected prevailing international market prices. Global Trade Alert logs China, Oman and Turkiye as the principal ammunition-exporting origins affected by the revised benchmark. No specific per-unit values or an aggregate trade value were disclosed in the sources reviewed, so this is filed as a qualitative severity rating pending disclosure of the underlying value schedule.
