Tax residency in Afghanistan
An individual is treated as a resident of Afghanistan for personal income tax purposes if, at any time during the tax year, the individual has a principal home in Afghanistan, or is present in Afghanistan for 183 days or more in aggregate within any 12-month period that begins or ends in the tax year; Afghan government officials assigned abroad are deemed residents. Where an individual is resident in both Afghanistan and another jurisdiction under domestic rules, residence is determined under the applicable tax treaty tie‑breaker tests (generally considering permanent home, centre of vital interests, habitual abode, nationality, and, if needed, mutual agreement).
