ZATCA expects income, VAT, and zakatable wealth tied to actual bank movements. Export your Al Rajhi PDF and filter the entries that matter.
Convert your Al Rajhi statementSaudi nationals pay Zakat at 2.5% on net zakatable wealth, not income tax. VAT-registered businesses remit 15% on taxable supplies. Both filings cross-reference back to bank movements: the Zakat base relies on closing balances and asset positions, while VAT returns need merchant-side input and output records. Al Rajhi statements are the source document for both.
Because Al Rajhi is Sharia-compliant, statements include Murabaha-related credits and debits that look like income or expense but are financing in nature. Treating them as taxable income inflates your Zakat base. Treating them as expenses inflates deductions. A clean spreadsheet lets you classify each row before it reaches the ZATCA portal.
Al Rajhi PDFs run Date (DD/MM/YYYY), Arabic description, reference, debit, credit, running balance. The label "قسط مرابحة" marks a Murabaha installment debit. A reversal of that line — sometimes appearing as a credit — is a financing drawdown, not income. The label "راتب" marks a WPS salary credit. "حوالة دولية" marks an outbound international wire. Mada POS purchases show the merchant name in Arabic following the "POS-MADA-" prefix and carry an embedded 15% VAT component.
For VAT reconciliation, the POS-MADA debit value is VAT-inclusive at 15%. The output VAT visible in your Al Rajhi statement should match the input VAT side of your supplier invoices.
Different ZATCA filings need different cuts of the same statement. Filter once, export, and keep the original PDF for the audit trail.
Al Rajhi statements are bilingual (Arabic/English) single-PDF documents. Columns follow the order: Date (DD/MM/YYYY), Description in Arabic, Transaction reference, Debit, Credit, Running Balance in SAR. Transaction labels are primarily in Arabic and may include Sharia product nomenclature such as Murabaha installments.
| Label | Meaning |
|---|---|
| قسط مرابحة | Murabaha installment debit |
| POS-MADA- | Point-of-sale purchase via Mada debit network |
| حوالة سريعة | Sarie instant domestic transfer (IPS) |
| حوالة واردة من الخارج | Inbound international wire transfer (SWIFT) |
| راتب | Salary credit via WPS/GOSI |
Saudi Zakat at 2.5% applies to net Zakatable assets (capital, retained earnings, receivables minus payables); statements prove the ending balance and cash movements that enter the Zakat base calculation.
Upload your full-period Al Rajhi PDF
Pull a full Hijri or Gregorian year statement from Al Rajhi Mobile. The longer the period, the more accurate the Zakat base calculation. Upload to Kashfbank.
Verify SAR and the reporting year
Confirm the period covers your Zakat year-end or VAT quarter. Hijri dates in the source PDF are converted to Gregorian (ISO 8601) in the export; keep the original Al Rajhi PDF if your accountant works in Hijri.
Filter by category
Use the Category column to split rows into Income, Murabaha, Mada POS (VAT-inclusive), International Wire, and Salary. Total each group separately. Murabaha goes to liabilities; everything else feeds the income statement.
Export and reconcile against ZATCA returns
Download CSV and match the totals against your filed VAT returns and your Zakat base computation. Mada POS debits with 15% VAT should match your supplier invoice trail.
Common challenges
How does Kashfbank handle Hijri dates on Al Rajhi statements?
Dates are normalised to Gregorian (ISO 8601) in the export. If your Zakat year follows the Hijri calendar, keep the original Al Rajhi PDF alongside the CSV. The Description column is unchanged, so any Hijri references in the bank's reference codes stay intact.
My Al Rajhi statement shows a 'قسط مرابحة' credit one month. Is that income for Zakat?
No. A Murabaha credit reversal is a financing drawdown — it goes to liabilities, not the Zakat base. Kashfbank tags Murabaha entries to a separate Category so you do not accidentally include them in zakatable income.
Can I see the 15% VAT separately on Mada POS lines from Al Rajhi?
Al Rajhi statements show the VAT-inclusive amount, not a separate VAT line. The 15% breakdown lives on the merchant's invoice. Kashfbank flags POS-MADA entries so you can match them against supplier invoices when claiming input VAT credit.
Does Al Rajhi issue separate statements for VAT and Zakat reporting?
No. One PDF covers all transactions for the period. Filter the converted spreadsheet by date range and category to produce the cut you need for each filing.
