Zakat is an Islamic levy of 2.577% (based on the Gregorian calendar) or 2.5% (Hijri calendar) on the net Zakat base of eligible Saudi and GCC shareholders. Corporate Income Tax (CIT) is a 20% direct tax levied on the adjusted net profit attributable to non-Saudi/non-GCC foreign shareholders. For mixed-ownership entities, profits and capital are proportionally apportioned.
