Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority explains how to cancel tax registration after commercial registration transfer

The Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority has clarified the process for canceling a tax registration following the transfer of ownership of a commercial registration.

Canceling the tax registration

The authority explained that if the commercial registration is deleted, and it is confirmed that there are no active records for the taxpayer with other parties, and after settling any outstanding dues before the deletion date and submitting the VAT return, a request to cancel VAT registration can be submitted.

The steps begin by logging into the beneficiary’s account and selecting the Zakat and Tax Management icon, then choosing VAT services, followed by selecting the VAT registration cancellation icon. Once approval to deactivate the tax number is granted, a request to deactivate the unique number can be submitted by logging into your account, selecting the Zakat and Tax Management icon, then choosing Other Services from the drop-down menu. Next, select (Deactivate Unique Number/Branch Service), create a new request, complete the required details, specify the type of deactivation, state the reason for canceling the registration, and attach the necessary documents. Supporting documents related to the transfer or deletion should also be included in the attachments.
