Rethinking Corporate Residency in Qatar

Qatar’s 2024 Income Tax Law introduces a clearer test for determining corporate tax residency — aligning local rules with OECD standards.

Conclusion
 
  • Entities managed or controlled in Qatar are deemed resident, even if incorporated elsewhere.
  • Dual-residency conflicts resolved through double tax treaties.
  • Expats managing offshore companies from Qatar could trigger local tax obligations.
    Cross-border operations must reassess management structures and tax reporting to avoid unexpected liabilities.
