Saudi Arabia’s Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA) has issued a reminder to all commercial establishments with revenues exceeding SR40m ($10.7m) to submit their Value Added Tax (VAT) returns for May by June 30.

Businesses that fail to comply risk penalties ranging from 5 per cent to 25 per  cent of the total VAT due, depending on the delay and severity of non-compliance.

VAT in Saudi Arabia is an indirect tax applied to most goods and services sold or purchased, with some exemptions. All qualifying businesses are legally required to report and pay VAT on time to remain compliant with national tax regulations.
