Saudi Arabia's eCommerce sector has grown dramatically β€” with Amazon.sa, Noon, Jarir, and dozens of sector-specific marketplaces accounting for a significant and growing share of retail trade. Selling online in Saudi Arabia creates specific ZATCA VAT obligations: Fatoorah simplified invoice requirements for B2C sales, marketplace facilitation rules, import VAT on cross-border goods, and the VAT treatment of shipping, returns, and loyalty programmes.

Intelli Solutions provides specialist accounting services for Saudi eCommerce businesses β€” integrating your marketplace sales data with ZATCA-compliant accounting, managing Fatoorah B2C invoice reporting, and ensuring your online business is fully compliant with Saudi Arabia's evolving digital commerce regulations.

eCommerce Accounting & VAT Considerations

Marketplace VAT Rules

Marketplace facilitated supply rules β€” when does Amazon or Noon become the supplier for VAT purposes? We determine correct VAT treatment for marketplace-facilitated vs direct sales.

Cross-Border Imports

VAT on imported goods sold online β€” customs VAT at import, treatment of de minimis thresholds, and reconciliation to customs gateway data.

Fatoorah B2C Compliance

Phase 2 simplified e-invoice reporting for B2C sales β€” batch reporting to ZATCA within 24 hours of transaction, QR code generation, and cloud archiving.

Multi-Channel Reconciliation

Reconciling sales data from multiple platforms (website, Amazon, Noon, Instagram shop) to a single ZATCA VAT return β€” with returns and refunds correctly reversed.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Cross-border sales of goods exported from Saudi Arabia to overseas customers are generally zero-rated for VAT β€” meaning you charge 0% VAT but can recover input VAT on related costs. However, goods sold to Saudi customers (whether through a Saudi marketplace or directly) are subject to 15% VAT regardless of where the seller is registered. The rules are complex for marketplace sales involving non-resident sellers β€” we analyse each scenario.
