Value Added Tax (VAT) was implemented in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in January 2018
with the aim of diversifying revenue streams and strengthening the economic structure through an indirect tax framework. The VAT rate was later updated to 15%, as per the regulations issued by the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA).
Value Added Tax (VAT)
VAT applies to most goods and services purchased and sold within the Kingdom, with certain categories classified as zero-rated or exempt, according to the approved regulations.
As a VAT-registered business, you are required to:
- Register for VAT upon reaching the mandatory registration threshold
- Charge and collect VAT on taxable sales and services
- Submit periodic VAT returns and settle any VAT due
- Maintain proper records and tax invoices for review when requested
Compliance with VAT regulations is a legal responsibility that supports transparency and trust in the Saudi market while ensuring business continuity in accordance with national standards.
