Important: 本頁信息不構成稅務、法律或其他專業建議，也不得作為此類用途使用。如有任何疑問，您應咨詢您的專業顧問。

沙特阿拉伯政府的規定要求遠程服務提供商計算并征收沙特阿拉伯增值稅。

自 2018 年 1 月 1 日起，除非沙特阿拉伯居民賣家已提供其增值稅號（納稅人識別號 - TIN），否則亞馬遜將以 5% 的標準稅率針對月度訂閱費和其他“我要開店”費用征收和代繳沙特阿拉伯增值稅。

位于沙特阿拉伯并在亞馬遜網站上銷售商品的賣家可以向亞馬遜提供其沙特阿拉伯增值稅號，亞馬遜將不會針對的“我要開店”費用征收 5% 的沙特阿拉伯。

請按照以下步驟操作，向亞馬遜提供您的沙特阿拉伯增值稅號：

登錄您的賣家平臺賬戶。
在“設置”下，選擇賬戶信息。
在“稅務信息”部分，點擊增值稅信息。
從國家/地區列表中，選擇沙特阿拉伯。
添加您的增值稅號。
選擇我接受并同意稅務登記協議中規定的所有條件。
點擊保存。

常見問題

該協議對我的賣家賬戶有何影響？

如果您是沙特阿拉伯居民，亞馬遜向您的賣家賬戶收取的“我要開店”費用需要繳納沙特阿拉伯增值稅，除非您已向亞馬遜提供有效的增值稅號。

如何獲取沙特阿拉伯增值稅號？

您可以在線注冊沙特阿拉伯增值稅號。有關更多信息，請參閱沙特阿拉伯官方網站中的“稅務”。

我不是沙特阿拉伯居民。亞馬遜會針對我的賬戶費用征收沙特阿拉伯增值稅嗎？

如果您不是沙特阿拉伯居民，向您的賣家賬戶收取的“我要開店”費用則無需繳納沙特阿拉伯增值稅。請咨詢您的稅務顧問，了解您在沙特阿拉伯是否有任何增值稅義務。

如何向亞馬遜提供增值稅號？

您可以通過以下方式向亞馬遜提供您的沙特阿拉伯增值稅號：登錄賣家平臺，點擊設置 > 賬戶信息，然后點擊“稅務信息”模塊下的增值稅信息。

亞馬遜如何征收沙特阿拉伯增值稅？

如果賣家未提供有效的沙特阿拉伯增值稅號，亞馬遜將以 5% 的標準稅率針對“我要開店”費用和月度訂閱費向賣家征收增值稅。

我提供有效的沙特阿拉伯增值稅號后，亞馬遜為何仍征收沙特阿拉伯增值稅？

如果您已提供有效的沙特阿拉伯增值稅號，亞馬遜將不會計算或征收沙特阿拉伯增值稅。亞馬遜會在買家下單時計算相關費用的增值稅，并在配送訂單時向賣家賬戶征收相應稅費。因此，在您提供增值稅號之前，亞馬遜可能已對下達的訂單征收了沙特阿拉伯增值稅。

我更新了自己的信息，以反映我當前所在的地址位于沙特阿拉伯境外。亞馬遜為何仍對我征收沙特阿拉伯增值稅？

除非您在交易時提供的信息表明您為沙特阿拉伯居民，否則亞馬遜不會計算或征收您的賣家賬戶費用的沙特阿拉伯增值稅。亞馬遜會在買家下單時計算相關費用的沙特阿拉伯增值稅，并在配送訂單時征收相應稅費；在您更新當前地址和付款信息之前，可能已存在一些待處理訂單。

請轉到賣家賬戶信息并查看各部分的內容，以確保您的所有信息完整且準確。請注意，可能有多個地址和多種與您的賣家賬戶關聯。

我已不是沙特阿拉伯居民，且已更新了與當前地址相關的所有信息。亞馬遜能否將之前征收的沙特阿拉伯增值稅退回我的賣家賬戶？

亞馬遜需要根據您的賣家賬戶信息征收和代繳沙特阿拉伯增值稅。在征收沙特阿拉伯增值稅時，亞馬遜有足夠信息將您的賬戶與沙特阿拉伯關聯。如果您沒有有效的沙特阿拉伯增值稅號，亞馬遜將無法退回沙特阿拉伯增值稅。

我如何才能獲得亞馬遜之前向我的賣家賬戶征收的沙特阿拉伯增值稅的退款？

要申請退款，您需要在賣家平臺的“稅務登記信息”頁面上向亞馬遜提供您的沙特阿拉伯增值稅號。然后，您需要聯系，申請退還向您的賣家賬戶征收的沙特阿拉伯增值稅費用。

沙特阿拉伯增值稅退款申請的處理時間最長為 90 天。亞馬遜將向您發送更新信息，告知您賣家賬戶收到退款的預計日期（如果您的申請得到批準）。

對于針對月度訂閱費和“我要開店”費用征收的每筆沙特阿拉伯增值稅，亞馬遜會向我提供發票嗎？

如果賣家為其月度訂閱費和“我要開店”費用繳納了沙特阿拉伯增值稅，亞馬遜不會提供發票。但是，已提供增值稅號的賣家將收到月度發票。亞馬遜會向您的賣家賬戶中提及的主要電子郵件地址發送月度發票。

您還可以登錄賣家平臺并依次轉到報告 > 稅務文檔庫 > 賣家費用稅務發票，查看月度發票。

我已在賣家賬戶中添加了沙特阿拉伯增值稅號。亞馬遜會給我發送帶有沙特阿拉伯增值稅號的更新版發票嗎？

亞馬遜無法修改之前的發票以反映您的賣家賬戶中所作的修改。但是，如果您認為您錯誤地支付了增值稅，或者您有增值稅號，則可以申請退款。一旦您向亞馬遜提供了增值稅號，您將通過電子郵件收到月度增值稅發票。

亞馬遜能幫我填寫納稅申報單嗎？

雖然我們致力于幫助賣家，但我們不提供稅務咨詢或合規性方面的服務。如果您對稅款有任何疑問或需要協助報稅，請聯系稅務顧問。我們已經創建了第三方稅務顧問名單，但僅作為賣家資源提供。

How do I obtain a Saudi Arabia VAT ID?
You may be able to register for a Saudi Arabia VAT ID online. For more information, see the Taxation in Saudi Arabia official website.
I am not a Saudi Arabia resident. Will Amazon charge Saudi Arabia VAT on my account fees?
If you are not a resident of Saudi Arabia, Selling on Amazon fees through your selling account will not be subject to Saudi Arabia VAT. Consult your tax advisor to understand if you have any VAT obligations in Saudi Arabia.
How do I provide my VAT ID to Amazon?
You can provide your Saudi Arabia ID to Amazon by signing in to Seller Central, clicking Settings > Account Info, and click VAT Information under the Tax Information module.
How is Saudi Arabia VAT charged?
Amazon will charge sellers a standard rate of 5% VAT on Selling on Amazon fees and monthly subscription fees if the seller has not provided a valid Saudi Arabia VAT ID.
Why is Amazon continuing to collect Saudi Arabia VAT when I have provided a valid Saudi Arabia ID?
Amazon will not calculate or collect Saudi Arabia VAT if you have already provided a valid Saudi Arabia VAT ID. Amazon calculates VAT on fees when an order is placed and charges it to the Seller account when the order is shipped. Therefore, Saudi Arabia VAT may have been collected on orders placed prior to the time you provided your VAT ID.
I updated my information to reflect my current address which is outside Saudi Arabia. Why is Amazon continuing to collect Saudi Arabia VAT?
Amazon will not calculate or collect Saudi Arabia VAT on your selling account fees unless the information you have provided at the time of the transaction indicates you are a resident of Saudi Arabia. Amazon calculates Saudi Arabia VAT on fees when an order is placed and collects it when an order is shipped; there may have been existing pending orders before you updated your current address and payment information.
Go to Seller Account Information, and review each section to ensure that all of your information is complete and accurate. Note that there may be several addresses and payment methods associated with your selling account.
I am no longer a resident of Saudi Arabia, and I have updated all my information to reflect my current address. Can Amazon refund previously-charged Saudi Arabia VAT to my selling account?
Amazon is required to charge and remit Saudi Arabia VAT based on the information in your seller account. At the time the Saudi Arabia VAT was collected, Amazon had enough information to associate your account with Saudi Arabia. Amazon cannot refund Saudi Arabia VAT without a valid Saudi Arabia VAT ID.
How do I receive a refund for previously-charged Saudi Arabia VAT on my selling account?
To request a refund, you will need to provide your Saudi Arabia VAT ID to Amazon on the Tax Registration Information page in Seller Central. Then you will need to contact Amazon Seller Support to request a refund of the Saudi Arabia VAT charged to your selling account.
Saudi Arabia VAT refund requests can take up to 90 days to process. You will receive an update from Amazon informing you about the estimated date when you can expect to receive a refund in your selling account, if your request was approved.
Will Amazon provide me with an invoice for any Saudi Arabia VAT collected on my monthly subscription fees and Selling on Amazon fees?
Amazon will not provide an invoice to sellers who are charged Saudi Arabia VAT on their monthly subscription fees and Selling on Amazon fees. However, sellers that have provided their VAT ID will receive a monthly invoice. Your monthly invoice will be emailed to the primary email address mentioned in your selling account.
You can also view your monthly invoices by signing in to Seller Central > Reports > Tax Document Library > Seller Fee Tax Invoices.
I have added my Saudi Arabia VAT ID in my selling account. Can Amazon send me updated invoices with my Saudi Arabia VAT ID?
Amazon cannot modify prior invoices to reflect changes made to your selling account. However, if you believe you have been charged VAT in error, or since you have had a VAT ID, you may request a refund. Once you have provided your VAT ID to Amazon, you will receive monthly VAT invoices via email.
Can Amazon help me with my tax return?
While we are committed to helping sellers, we do not provide tax advisory or compliance services. Please contact a tax advisor if you have any questions about taxes or need assistance with your tax returns. We have created a list of third-party tax advisors solely as a resource for our sellers.
