VAT rates in Saudi Arabia (2026)

15%standard

The standard rate of 15% applies to most goods and services. There is no reduced rate; certain supplies may be exempt or zero-rated. Locally, the tax is called ضريبة القيمة المضافة (VAT). Registration / small-business threshold: SAR 375,000 annual taxable supplies.

Good to know

  • FATOORA e-invoicing is mandatory: invoices must be generated by compliant software, and taxpayers are being integrated with ZATCA’s platform in waves (Phase 2).
  • VAT registration is mandatory once annual taxable supplies exceed SAR 375,000.

How it’s calculated

VAT is charged as a percentage of the net (pre-tax) price. To add it, multiply the net amount by the rate; to find the net amount inside a tax-inclusive price, divide the gross amount by 1 plus the rate.

A common mistake is to remove VAT by subtracting the rate from the gross price (e.g. 119 − 19% = 96.39). That is wrong — the correct net amount is 119 ÷ 1.19 = 100.

  • Gross = Net × (1 + rate ÷ 100)
  • VAT = Net × rate ÷ 100
  • Net = Gross ÷ (1 + rate ÷ 100)
