Convert Your Bank AlJazira Statement for Freelance Work

Bank AlJazira is fully Sharia-compliant, headquartered in Jeddah. Freelance project credits, SWIFT inflows, and Murabaha installments all sit in the same compact statement.

What freelancers face on a Bank AlJazira statement

Bank AlJazira, founded in 1975 and headquartered in Jeddah, converted fully to Sharia-compliant operations in 2007. It serves the Jeddah and Makkah commercial corridors and appeals to freelancers and SMEs seeking a smaller, more personalized banking experience than the large national banks.

Your AlJazira statement bundles domestic Sarie transfers from local clients, international SWIFT credits from foreign clients, Murabaha installment debits, and any investment profit distributions from AlJazira Capital. The bank's compact statement is efficient — but "أرباح استثمارية" entries from the capital subsidiary need separation from project income for accurate ZATCA disclosure.

Reading AlJazira entries for income tracking

The AlJazira statement runs: Date (DD/MM/YYYY), Arabic-primary Description, Reference, Debit, Credit, Running Balance. Income-side rows: "حوالة سريعة واردة" for inbound Sarie from local Saudi clients, "حوالة دولية واردة" for inbound SWIFT from foreign clients, "راتب" for any salaried income, and "أرباح استثمارية" for investment profit distributions from AlJazira Capital.

Investment profit distributions are non-earned income. For ZATCA freelance disclosure, exclude them from gross income — they are zakatable wealth (counted in the Zakat base), not service revenue. Kashfbank tags these rows separately so the freelance income total is clean.

What to pull from the export

Filter the CSV by description keyword and the freelance picture comes into focus.

  • Inbound "حوالة سريعة" rows — domestic Saudi freelance income
  • Inbound "حوالة دولية" rows — foreign client income
  • "أرباح استثمارية" — investment income, exclude from earned-income total
  • "قسط مرابحة" debits — liability reductions, exclude from expenses
  • Closing balance at year-end — feeds your Zakat base

Bank AlJazira statement format

Bank AlJazira statements are bilingual PDFs in SAR. Columns are: Date (DD/MM/YYYY), Transaction Description (Arabic-primary), Reference, Debit, Credit, Running Balance. Islamic product names — Murabaha, Ijarah, Musawama — appear in Arabic in the description column. The header includes account IBAN, holder name, and statement period.

Saudi Arabia specifics for this use case

Saudi freelancers under the Misk freelance license must register with ZATCA and report income; a converted bank statement showing all Mada and SWIFT credits is the primary proof of earnings.

How to do it — step by step

1

Export from Bank AlJazira App

Generate a bilingual PDF covering your ZATCA year or audit period. AlJazira statements reflect Sharia-compliant product activity throughout.

2

Upload to Kashfbank

Drop the PDF in. Investment profit distributions are tagged separately so they don't inflate the freelance income total.

3

Filter for freelance income

Sum inbound "حوالة" rows. Exclude "أرباح استثمارية", Murabaha installments, and internal transfers. The result is your gross freelance income for the period.

4

Hand off to ZATCA or your accountant

Export the filtered view as CSV. Pair it with invoice records for ZATCA disclosure or Misk freelance license renewal documentation.

Common challenges

  • •Mixed personal and business transactions in one account with no obvious separator
  • •Multi-currency income (USD invoice paid, bank receives AED/SAR equivalent) causing amount mismatches
  • •Arabic-only PDF statements from GCC banks that resist standard OCR tools
  • •Scanned statements with low DPI or handwritten annotations that break text extraction
  • •Recurring transfers from family that resemble client payments

Frequently asked questions

Bank AlJazira is Sharia-compliant. Does that change how my freelance income is reported?

No. Sharia compliance affects the bank's products, not your income classification. Inbound Sarie and SWIFT credits are freelance income regardless. Investment profit distributions from AlJazira Capital are separate — they are zakatable wealth, not service income.

Why does Kashfbank tag "أرباح استثمارية" separately from regular income?

Investment profit distributions come from AlJazira Capital investment accounts, not from freelance work. They are non-earned income for ZATCA purposes — included in zakatable wealth for the Zakat base but excluded from freelance gross-income totals. Kashfbank separates them so the classification is explicit.

Can I open both a freelance current account and an AlJazira Capital investment account?

Yes. Many Bank AlJazira freelance customers hold both. The statement shows both flows. Kashfbank's CSV separates project income (Sarie, SWIFT credits) from investment distributions ("أرباح استثمارية") for ZATCA reporting.

Does Kashfbank work with multi-month AlJazira statements for license renewal?

Yes. Misk and similar freelance licenses often request a 6 or 12-month income history. Upload all statements in one Kashfbank session and merge the CSVs in Excel for a unified income view across the period.
