E-Commerce & Marketplace VAT Obligations

The government has confirmed its intent to expand VAT compliance requirements to e-commerce platforms. Under the new regulations, online businesses—whether based locally or overseas—must register, collect, and remit VAT on eligible sales to Saudi consumers.

This aligns with global tax trends targeting the digital economy, placing additional compliance responsibilities on sellers. For tax professionals and ERP implementers, these changes underscore the need for robust indirect tax automation and advisory services.

Prepare for Jan 2026 rules; ensure platforms are VAT-compliant.
