TAX MATTERS: VAT on imported services

0 comments

VALUE Added Tax (VAT) laws provide for collection of VAT on services imported by any person (individuals, registered operator or non-registered persons). The supplier of imported services must be a non-resident of Zimbabwe and the services should be consumed or utilised in Zimbabwe. VAT on imported services is a self-declaration by the recipient of services.
The term imported services means “…a supply of services that is made by a supplier who is not resident in Zimbabwe or carries on business outside Zimbabwe to a recipient who is a resident of Zimbabwe, to the extent that such services are utilised or consumed in Zimbabwe”.
