RIYADH, November 9, 2026 (Saudi Arabia Breaking News) - Saudi Arabia’s Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA) has announced the launch of an online business advisory service designed to help companies and individuals identify their zakat, tax and customs obligations based on their commercial activities, the Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported.
The digital service allows business owners, taxpayers, importers, exporters and customs brokers to determine which regulatory requirements apply to their operations without requiring direct assistance from the authority.
Users enter information about their business activities into the online system, which analyzes the details and immediately displays the applicable zakat, tax and customs obligations alongside relevant regulatory guidance.
ZATCA said the service aims to improve compliance with existing laws and regulations while helping businesses make informed decisions about their operations.
The platform is intended to simplify access to regulatory information, particularly for businesses seeking to understand their obligations when establishing or expanding commercial activities.
According to the authority, the system provides guidance tailored to the information submitted by users, allowing them to identify compliance requirements and assess the regulatory implications of their business activities.
The service forms part of ZATCA’s broader efforts to expand digital access to zakat, tax and customs information, improve the taxpayer experience and encourage voluntary compliance.
Businesses can access the advisory service through ZATCA’s official website by selecting the relevant service page, entering the required information and submitting an inquiry to receive an immediate assessment of their applicable obligations.
