GTA signs MoUs to strengthen professional qualification in tax field

The General Tax Authority (GTA) in Doha emphasizes the significance of forming strong alliances with national educational institutions to bolster professional training and qualification programs, particularly in the tax domain. To this end, the GTA recently inked Memorandums of Cooperation with the Qatar Finance and Business Academy and Qatar University.

The GTA's partnership with Qatar Finance and Business Academy, signed off by GTA President Khalifa bin Jassim Al Jaham Al-Kuwari and Academy CEO Dr. Khalifa Al Salahi Al Yafei, aims to bolster the "Tax Specialist" program. This initiative seeks to bolster professionals' competencies, ensuring they stay abreast of tax field advancements.

Similarly, the GTA's collaboration with Qatar University, represented by GTA Assistant President for Tax Affairs Mr. Ghanim bin Khalifa Al-Attiyah and Qatar University Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs Professor Dr. Ibrahim Mohammed Al-Kaabi, also supports the "Tax Specialist" program. This collaboration aims to widen opportunities for collaboration and knowledge exchange between the GTA and academic/professional entities, thereby heightening the quality of tax-related professional qualifications.

This, in turn, nurtures a skilled local workforce equipped to meet labor market demands and drive Qatar's economic growth.

By enabling participating entities to benefit from the "Tax Specialist" Certificate program, these partnerships will contribute to its delivery and ongoing enhancement. Ultimately, this effort aims to make the "Tax Specialist" Certificate accessible to a wider range of individuals aspiring to specialize in the tax field. In the future, the GTA anticipates opening the program to additional national educational institutions, encouraging Qatari youth to pursue careers in taxation.

This will aid in addressing the increasing demand for specialized professionals within the GTA and across diverse sectors in Qatar.
