If you are a laundry or dry cleaning business in Saudi Arabia, then you will likely be facing the challenge of maintaining compliance with the new requirements from Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA). These regulations are a significant step in Saudi Arabia's digital transformation and have far-reaching implications for businesses across all sectors.
Why ZATCA Compliance Matters
For laundry and dry cleaning businesses, ZATCA compliance isn't just about following regulations, it's about future-proofing your operations. Compliance ensures your business can:
- Avoid penalties and business disruptions
- Streamline tax filing processes
- Enhance customer trust with legitimate e-invoicing
- Contribute to Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 economic transformation
Phase 2 Compliance Deadlines
The ZATCA e-invoicing initiative (Fatoorah) is being implemented in phases. While Phase 1 focused on the generation and storage of electronic invoices, Phase 2 introduces integration with ZATCA systems in real-time. For laundry and dry cleaning businesses, understanding these deadlines is crucial:
- Large taxpayers were required to comply by January 1, 2023
- Medium businesses have been integrated according to a staggered timeline throughout 2023-2024
- Businesses above SAR 1.5 million by October 2025.
Non-compliance can result in penalties of up to SAR 50,000 per violation, making it essential for businesses to implement compliant solutions promptly.
