Taxation in Israel

Once your business has been registered with the registrar, it must be registered with the appropriate tax authority. Registration as a company should be made at the tax authority upon commencement of business activity.

Monthly and Annual Tax Filings

The Israeli fiscal year is generally the calendar year. Branches of foreign public companies may sometimes use a different fiscal year. All companies doing business in Israel are required to file audited annual tax returns and financial statements within five months after their fiscal year. However, extensions may be obtained. Filings may sometimes be spread over a period of up to 13 months after the tax year end date.

Companies must also file monthly returns on accounts, accompanied by tax payments. Bimonthly returns are sometimes acceptable for smaller firms.

Taxes to be filed include:

  • Company tax installments- a percentage of the company's monthly sales revenue

  • Supplementary company tax installments with respect to certain non-deductible expenses

  • Tax withheld from salaries and remittances to suppliers when applicable

  • Value-added tax (VAT)

  • National Insurance

These documents and payments must be received by the fifteenth day after the fact and can be paid at a bank or post office. Late payments may generate an automated fine. Regulations require detailed bookkeeping and invoice requirements for income tax and VAT. Accounting records must be available for inspection in Israel by tax officials.
