Tax on Income?

Hi everyone,

Pardon my ignorance but I come from a Country where you are taxed in every way that the Government can think of lol. This includes income tax.

In Qatar, is there anything of the sort? I just want to know that if a job offers me a monthly salary, what (if anything) will be deducted from that figure.

Thank you in advanced

Peace be upon you all

I come from a similar country, where every penny are earn is taxed. Thank God, Qatar is not like that. Your salary is tax free mate!

The government of Qatar does not have income tax. Your gross salary = your net salary. However, if your country has a tax treaty with Qatar you may be liable for taxes in your home country.

You can research this by googling this on the internet.

Thank you for your response. So in essence, is your gross monthly salary and your net monthly the same thing? Or is there a mandatory amount deducted from your pay for whatever reason?

Your salary is tax-free in Qatar. Check with your own country if they tax you on overseas income.
