Iran's Tax Agency Drops Old-Debt Clearance Condition for Business Tax Instalments
Sahmino Newsroom | 22 October 2026 | 24 days ago
Mohammad Nouri, an official at Iran's National Tax Administration, said on Thursday, October 22, 2026, that business owners can pay their fixed tax for the 1404 Iranian fiscal year in instalments without first settling debts from earlier years. The payment period will run from five to nine months depending on how severely the business was affected by wartime conditions; adjustments for losses will be applied automatically in the Article 100 form.

The agency says forms will appear gradually on its tax services portal through November 6, 2026. Taxpayers assessed at zero need take no action. The change removes a condition for instalment payments, not the underlying older tax debts.
