The deadline for submission is no later than June 30, 2026. ZATCA has called on establishments to file their tax returns immediately through the ZATCA's app in order to avoid a late filing fine. A fine shall be imposed for failure to file the tax returns within the specified period. The minimum fine shall be 5%, whereas the maximum fine 25% of the value of the tax that must be declared.

According to Saudi Press Agency, the authority invites taxpayers in the business sector who wish to learn more about VAT to reach out through the call center unified number (19993), operating 24/7, or the "Ask Zakat, Tax and Customs" account on the (X) platform (@Zatca_Care), or through email ([email protected]), or by instant chat on the website (zatca.gov.sa).

The VAT is a tax law in force in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, as an indirect tax imposed on all goods and services that are bought and sold by businesses, with a few exceptions.
