The General Authority of Zakat and Tax (GAZT) has participated in the Forum on Tax Administration (FTA) that was organized by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The FTA was held virtually on 7-8 December, 2020, and brought together the heads of tax administration of 53 countries, whose tax revenues exceeded EUR 11.5 trillion. The two-day forum discussed a variety of tax administration issues including the countries' responses to the global COVID-19 pandemic, risks and digital transformation in tax administration. The FTA was established in 2002. It brings together 53 OECD and non-OECD countries, including G20 members, to discuss and influence relevant global trends as well as develop new ideas to enhance tax administration around the world. The GAZT participates in international economic forums related to tax administration emanating from its keenness to exchange successful expertise.
