How we work

For businesses with non-Saudi or non-GCC shareholders, we make sure the applicable rates and exemptions are correctly applied from the outset.

We start from your ownership structure, because it determines how your profits are split between income tax and Zakat, then map every payment to non-residents to confirm the correct withholding tax treatment.

Returns are prepared from your audited financial statements and reconciled line by line, and we stay involved if ZATCA raises queries, so the positions we take are ones you can support.

Our approach to tax & Zakat

End-to-end support across VAT, corporate tax, Zakat and transfer pricing, administered by ZATCA, combining deep regulatory knowledge with practical guidance, so compliance stays current without pulling management’s attention away from running the business.

What you can expect

Every engagement ends with recommendations management can act on immediately. Where the work has ongoing implications, we follow up to confirm they’ve actually been put into practice. Where standards are involved, we hold our own work to them fully, so what we deliver stands up under scrutiny from auditors, regulators and investors alike.

Why It Matters

Businesses in the Kingdom don’t need a firm that only knows the rules, they need one that knows how those rules apply to their specific situation, and can say so clearly. That’s the standard we hold every engagement to.

Saudi Arabia’s regulatory environment moves quickly, ZATCA requirements, e-invoicing mandates, Zakat assessments and Vision 2030-driven reform all shift on their own timelines, and falling behind any one of them carries real financial and reputational cost. Staying ahead of that isn’t optional for a business that wants to keep growing without interruption.

That’s the gap Zento exists to close: minimising regulatory risk, keeping compliance current, and freeing management to spend their time on the business itself rather than on keeping up with the paperwork behind it.
