Trade chambers ask GDT to delay income-tax date
Mon, 15 March 2021
Nine international business chambers have called on the General Department of Taxation (GDT) to extend the deadline for filing tax on income for fiscal year 2020 past March 31 in light of economic pressure caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.
A joint letter addressed to GDT director-general Kong Vibol on March 12 revealed the signatories as the International Business Chamber of Cambodia (IBC) and the chambers of commerce in Cambodia for the US (AmCham), Australia, the UK, Europe (EuroCham), India, Japan (JBAC), Malaysia (MBCC) and the Philippines.
The letter stressed the need to temporarily suspend in-person meetings, especially for taxpayers undergoing audits or new ones looking to register.
