Frequently asked
How is tax governance different from assurance?
Governance is design and advisory to build policy and controls; assurance is an independent evaluation of an existing system by a licensed firm.
Who approves the tax policy?
It is approved by senior management or the board and reviewed periodically as rules or the business change.
Zakati is an independent private advisory firm and is not affiliated with the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA) or its “Zakaty” app. Published content is general guidance and does not constitute professional advice on any specific matter.
