The mechanism under the VAT Implementing Regulations by which a Saudi-registered buyer, not the non-resident supplier, accounts for 15% VAT on imported services and specified cross-border supplies. The buyer declares output and input VAT in the same return, so the net effect is nil where full recovery applies. Reverse-charge supplies must be flagged on the e-invoice with the appropriate tax category code.
