  • New turnover tax filing frequencies effective January 2025: annual for turnover below XCG 30,000, quarterly for XCG 30,000–75,000, and monthly for above XCG 75,000.
  • Businesses must ensure compliance with new filing deadlines; annual returns due January 15, 2026, and quarterly returns by the 15th of the month after each quarter.
  • Local entrepreneurs using foreign service providers may be liable for turnover tax on cross-border transactions and should verify provider registration with Curaçao Tax Authorities.
  • Changes to shared cost allocation formulas are only allowed if the composition of cooperating parties changes.
  • Real estate rental income: commercial leases are taxed, permanent residential leases (over one year) may be exempt, and short-term residential leases are generally taxed.
