Certain specific types of income are exempt. Foreign interest and dividends accruing to taxpayers that are ordinarily resident in Zimbabwe are deemed to be from a source in Zimbabwe. A corporation is ordinarily resident in Zimbabwe if it is managed and controlled in Zimbabwe. Rates of corporate tax. Resident and nonresident companies are subject to income tax at a rate of 25%. Residents are subject to income tax at a rate of 20% on gross foreign dividends receivable. An AIDS levy of 3% is imposed on income tax payable (excluding tax on income subject to special rates).

The tax is im - posed at the time of disposal or maturity of the instrument. No deduction for expenses and losses is permitted from interest subject to the final taxes described above. Other interest received by residents is taxable at the regular corporate income tax rate and may be offset by expenses and losses. Tax concessions. In the past, export-processing zones were designated in the major business centers and border areas of Zimbabwe. Concessions have recently been restricted to licenses issued before 1 January 2007 to certain investors to operate in these zones. The concessions are in the form of reduced rates or an exemption with respect to the following taxes: Income tax on profits (0% rate for five years and 15% rate for subsequent years) Capital gains tax Nonresident and resident shareholders taxes on dividends Nonresident taxes on remittances, fees and royalties Customs duty Value-added tax on goods and services (refundable) Foreign entities that provide finance for development in Zimbabwe are exempt from income tax and capital gains tax.

The withholding tax rates on the disposal of assets ac quired before 1 February 2009 are 1% for listed marketable securities and 5% for unlisted marketable securities and immovable property. The withholding tax rates on disposal of assets acquired on or after 1 February 2009 are 1% for listed marketable securities, 5% for unlisted marketable securities and 15% for immovable property. This tax is offset against any capital gains tax assessed on the transaction. Capital gains derived from the disposal of immovable property and unlisted securities acquired before 1 February 2009 are taxed at the greater of 5% of the gross sale proceeds and the amount of the withholding tax withheld on disposal. Capital gains derived from disposals of immovable property and unlisted marketable securities acquired after 1 February 2009 are taxed at a rate of 20%. Gains are determined by deducting from the selling price the cost plus an allowance of 2.5% per year on the cost from the date the cost was incurred to the date of disposal. Capital allowances recaptured for income tax purposes (see Section C) are excluded from gains. Capital gains withholding tax is offset against any capital gains tax assessed on the transaction. Capital gains derived from the disposal of listed securities are exempt from capital gains tax, effective from 1 August 2009, but the gross sale proceeds are subject to 1% capital gains withholding tax which is a final tax. Administration. Zimbabwe s tax year ends on 31 December. Tax returns must be filed on 30 April.

Dividends received by a resident corporation from another resident corporation are exempt from withholding tax and income tax. A 10% withholding tax is imposed on dividends paid by companies listed on the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange to resident individuals and nonresidents.

6 ZIMBABWE 1553 Donations of up to a specified threshold for the construction, maintenance or operation of hospitals and schools run by the state, local authorities or religious organizations and donations to ap - proved research institutions are deductible. A double tax deduction is allowed for specified export market development expenditure. Amounts contributed to approved scientific and educational bodies for industrial research or scientific experimental work are also deductible for tax purposes. Inventories. The only acceptable inventory valuation methods for tax purposes are cost, using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, and market value. Provisions. In general, only specific provisions are deductible for tax purposes. Tax depreciation. Depreciation charged in the financial statements is not deductible; instead, a 25% special initial allowance is granted on the cost of certain assets. A wear-and-tear allow ance of 25% of cost is granted in the following three years. The special initial allow ance is granted on the cost of construction or additions to fixed assets other than land and certain buildings and also on the purchase price of movable property. If the special initial allowance is not claimed, a wear-and-tear allowance at vary ing rates is granted on these assets. The following are the rates and the methods of computing this wear-and-tear allowance for certain assets. Asset Method Rate (%) Commercial buildings Straight-line 2.5 Industrial buildings* Straight-line 5 Office equipment Declining-balance 10 Motor vehicles Declining-balance 20 Plant and machinery Declining-balance 10 * Toll roads and toll bridges declared to be such under the Toll Roads Act are included in this category. All capital allowances are subject to recapture on the disposal of assets on which such allowances have been claimed. Any amounts recaptured are subject to tax at the regular corporate tax rate. The full sale price of mining assets on which capital allow ances have been granted is subject to tax at the corporate tax rate for mining. Relief for losses. Mining losses are ring fenced to specific locations and may be carried forward indefinitely. Other losses may be carried forward for six years. Losses may not be carried back. Groups of companies. Zimbabwean law does not contain measures for filing consolidated returns or for relieving losses within a group. Transfers of assets in a merger or group reconstruction between companies under common control may be made at the tax value for both income tax and capital gains tax purposes. On the subsequent disposal of such assets outside the group, the gain or loss to the seller is computed with reference to the cost to the first transferor within the group. D. Other significant taxes The following table summarizes other significant taxes.
7 1554 Z IMBABWE Nature of tax Rate (%) Value-added tax; on the supply and importation of goods and services; certain items are exempt, including, financial services, medical services, fuel, tobacco, educational or training services, long-term residential leases and transport of passengers by road or rail; suppliers of qualifying goods and services with an annual value in excess of a specified threshold must register; the annual threshold is currently USD60,000 Standard rate 15 Exports, prescribed drugs and services supplied by designated tourist facilities to tourists that are paid for with foreign currency, as well as certain other items 0 Presumptive taxes on different bases and at various rates are imposed on informal traders, small-scale miners, and operators of taxicabs, omnibuses, goods vehicles, driving schools, hair-dressing salons, cottage industries, waterborne vessels, fishing rigs and licensed and unlicensed bottle stores and restaurants. E. Miscellaneous matters Foreign-exchange controls. The legislation and regulations with respect to foreign-exchange controls are currently under review. The present rules are discussed below. The government still imposes broad controls over all transactions involving a nonresident. Applications through commercial banks are re quired for the approval of most transactions of this nature. Com mercial banks refer exceptional items to the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe. Foreign investment of up to 35% in primary issues of shares and bonds is permitted if funded by inward transfers of foreign exchange. Purchases and disposals by foreign investors in the secondary market require specific approval from the authorities. Agreements relating to foreign borrowings require registration with the commercial banker of the borrower before implementation. Borrowings in excess of specified limits require the approval of the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe. The approvals are granted based on the merits of the borrowings in accordance with guidelines set by the External Loans Coordinating Committee. The guidelines provide that foreign borrowings may be approved only if they are used to fund productive, export-oriented ventures that have the potential to generate sufficient foreign currency for loan principal and interest repayments without recourse to the foreigncurrency market. Foreign loans to purchase shares, existing companies or real estate, or to fund private consumption, personal loans or retail inventories, are generally discouraged. With the approval of the authorities, 100% of after-tax normal trading profits may be remitted to nonresident shareholders within one year after the accrual of the profits. After-tax dividends and capital gains derived from investments on the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange are fully remittable.
