The Minimum Tax is a separate and distinct tax from the tax on profit. This tax is subject to the self-assessment regime taxpayers except for the qualified investment project (QIP) recognized by the Council for Development of Cambodia (CDC). The Minimum Tax is imposed at the rate of 1 percent of the annual turnover inclusive of all taxes except for VAT, and is payable at the time of the annual liquidation of the tax on profit. The minimum tax may be reduced by the annual tax on profit that is actually paid.
