What is ZATCA?

ZATCA — the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority — is the Saudi government body running customs, VAT and zakat. It was formed in 2021 by merging the tax authority with Saudi Customs. For importers it means one authority for duties (mostly 5%), import VAT (15%) and declarations filed via FASAH.

The unified contact number is 19993, around the clock inside the Kingdom; the tariff lookup lives at zatca.gov.sa.
