Qatar: Change to withholding tax declaration process via tax portal
Must now be linked to contracts previously reported by taxpayers
The General Tax Authority (GTA) introduced a change to the withholding tax declaration process via the Dhareeba tax portal.
Going forward, withholding tax declarations must now be linked to the contracts previously submitted by taxpayers under the "contract reporting" section of the Dhareeba tax portal.
To facilitate this, the GTA has updated the withholding tax template form to include two new columns:
- Contract submission acknowledgment reference number from Dhareeba
- Contract reference number from taxpayers records
