TAXATION ADVISORY (ZATCA)
What Does Taxation Advisory Really Mean For Businesses In Saudi Arabia?
In Saudi Arabia’s evolving tax landscape, advisory services are essential for legal alignment, operational continuity, and financial accuracy. With ZATCA enforcing stricter compliance across VAT, WHT, Zakat, and Transfer Pricing, businesses must adopt proactive tax strategies to avoid penalties and maintain credibility.
MHK supports organizations across the Kingdom with structured tax advisory frameworks — ensuring timely filings, accurate reporting, and regulator-aligned documentation across all applicable tax categories.
Why Is Tax Advisory Essential For Companies In Saudi Arabia?
With increasing enforcement from ZATCA and related authorities, businesses must navigate complex tax obligations — from VAT registration to transfer pricing documentation. Errors, delays, or misinterpretations can result in fines, audits, and reputational damage.
MHK enables clients to manage tax obligations with precision — ensuring every filing is accurate, every refund is defensible, and every advisory input is regulator-aligned.
What Does A Typical Tax Advisory Engagement Include?
A complete engagement goes beyond filing support. It includes:
- VAT registration, de-registration, and periodic filing
- Zakat calculation and submission under GAZT guidelines
- Transfer pricing documentation and benchmarking
- Withholding tax (WHT) filing and advisory
- Corporate tax planning and compliance
- Excise tax advisory for applicable sectors
- Refund applications and reconsideration requests
- Advisory on tax audits and dispute resolution MHK ensures each engagement is customized to your business type, sector, and regulatory exposure.
