FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

Any business that imports, manufactures, stores or trades in excise goods such as tobacco products, soft drinks, energy drinks, electronic smoking devices and related liquids must register for excise tax in KSA.

Registration ensures legal compliance, prevents penalties and enables smooth business operations. At Infinity Horizons, we review your business operations, determine whether excise obligations apply to you and guide you through the entire registration procedure with full precision and documentation support.

Failure to comply may result in penalties, financial losses, audits and disruptions to your operations. ZATCA may impose fines for late filings, incorrect classifications, inaccurate documentation or unpaid taxes.
