Latvia: monthly corporate income tax (UIN) declaration due by the 20th when profit is distributed
Jeden Monat, fällig bis zum 20. · Only applies to months in which the company distributed profit (dividends) or had another UIN-taxable event (e.g. non-business expenses); the taxation period under the Uzņēmumu ienākuma nodokļa likums is the calendar month.
Was sich ändert
Latvia's corporate income tax is charged only when profit is distributed (e.g. dividends) or spent on non-business or other UIN-taxable items, not on an annual accrual basis, and the taxation period is the calendar month. In any month such a taxable event occurs, the company must file a UIN declaration and pay the tax by the 20th of the following month; months with no taxable event require no filing.
Wer betroffen ist
Any Latvia-registered company under the general CIT regime (SIA, AS) that distributes dividends, covers non-business expenses, or has another UIN-taxable event in a given calendar month. Companies that fully reinvest profit and have no such events have no monthly filing obligation.
Größen: kleinst, klein, mittel, groß · Branchen: Alle Branchen
Was zu tun ist
Track dividend decisions and other UIN-taxable transactions with your accountant every month. When a taxable event occurred, file the UIN declaration via VID EDS and pay the tax by the 20th of the following month; when none occurred, no declaration is due for that month.
