Annual Compliance in Qatar
The annual corporate pack for a Qatari company — renewal of the commercial registration and the trade licence with MOCI (a lapsed CR blocks banking and government transactions), appointment of a licensed auditor and preparation of audited financial statements, and the corporate income tax return filed on Dhareeba within four months of the year end with those accounts attached. Multinational groups over the country-by-country reporting threshold have an additional annual GTA filing.
