Tax Structuring

Proper structuring of tax creates a regulated framework for all your tax payments and trading arrangements. It helps in reducing a range of direct and indirect tax your organization is required to pay. A perfect tax plan aligns with its corporate strategy or business framework, and includes identification of tax risks.

Tax Filing

Filing proper tax returns on time with adherence to both national and international tax governance bodies (FTA, CSR, etc.) lets you off the penalties and legal proceedings. A business subject to CT will need to register with the FTA and obtain a Tax Registration Number within the prescribed period. The Tax return and the CT payment must be made within nine (9) months from the end of the relevant Tax Period.
