VAT Compliance in Saudi Arabia: Staying Ahead with Technology and Expertise
Managing VAT in Saudi Arabia requires businesses to not only follow regulatory rules but also adapt to fast-evolving digital tax requirements. With systems like E-Invoicing (Fatoorah) and strict electronic filing mandates, staying technologically equipped and deadline-ready is essential for all businesses.
VAT Deadlines in Saudi Arabia
VAT deadlines are strict and non-negotiable. Depending on annual Taxable Supplies:
- Monthly filing applies to taxpayers whose annual Taxable Supplies exceeded SAR 40,000,000 in the previous 12 months.
- Quarterly filing applies to all other taxpayers.
Failure to file or pay VAT on time can result in:
- Penalties for late submissions.
