On March 20, 2025, the Tax Department issued a key update regarding the submission of the Income Tax Return for the tax year 2023 for companies and self-employed individuals who are required to prepare accounts. This announcement provides clarification on the official deadlines and the corresponding penalties for late submissions.
Deadline for Submission of Income Tax Returns (T.D.4 and T.D.1): According to the Assessment and Collection of Taxes Law (Law No. 4/1978), the original deadline for submitting the Income Tax Return for Companies (Form T.D.4) and for Self-Employed individuals with an obligation to prepare accounts (Form T.D.1) for the tax year 2023, is March 31, 2025.
