We wish to remind you that the deadline for revising the 2023 provisional tax calculations as well as the payment of the second instalment of the 2023 provisional tax is the 31st December 2023.
As per our tax alert issued on the 29th of June 2023, all Cyprus tax resident Companies which expect to have taxable profits for the year 2023 are required to submit a provisional tax return for the year by the 31st July and pay the corresponding tax in two instalments, on 31st July and 31st December.
Interest will accrue at a rate of 2.25% per annum, as well as a penalty of 5% on the tax due if the installment is not paid on or before the deadline.
In case the provisional tax paid for 2023 is less than 75% of the final taxable profits calculated on the basis of the audited financial statements for the year, a penalty equal to 10% of the difference between the actual tax liability and the provisional tax declared is payable.
Taxpayers have the opportunity to revise the provisional tax return, if deemed necessary, by submitting a revised provisional tax return before the 31st December.
The payment of the second provisional tax instalment is due within one month from the payment deadline (i.e. until 31 January 2024) without interest or penalties.
