The move aims to simplify procedures for taxpayers, provide integrated technical support, and encourage voluntary compliance. Abdel Aal explained that individuals may submit their tax returns from 1 January 2026 until 31 March 2026, while companies can file until 30 April 2026, or within four months of the end of their financial year. She added that the Authority has also deployed technical support committees at professional syndicates, civil society institutions, chambers of commerce, and federations to further assist taxpayers. In addition, dedicated technical support teams have been assigned to tax offices nationwide.
