About Ask Me Tax

Tax research that shows its sources.

Ask Me Tax answers tax questions by finding the relevant passages in the law, official guidance, tax treaties and case law. Every answer cites its sources so you can check them yourself.

Who we are

Ask Me Tax is built and run by Global Ledger Solutions, an accounting, tax and cross-border advisory practice serving businesses across South Asia and the Gulf. We built it because practitioners spend too much time finding the right provision before they can think about it.

What it covers

Ask Me Tax covers a growing list of countries across the Gulf, Europe and beyond, plus the OECD model tax rules. We add new countries all the time, with the aim of covering every country that publishes its tax sources.

Topics include VAT and GST, corporate and personal income tax, withholding tax, Zakat, excise, transfer pricing, Pillar Two and double tax treaties. What's available depends on the country. The country list on the question page is always up to date.

How it works for you

1. Choose a country. Your question is answered from that country's sources only, so the answer never mixes in another country's rules.
2. Focus on one type of source. Each answer draws on one type of source at a time: regulations, guidelines, double tax agreements or case law. Focusing on one type gives a complete analysis of it rather than a quick pass over everything. In advisory mode you pick the source; in interactive mode you can name it in your question.
3. Ask in plain language. You don't need to know the article number or the title of the document.
4. Get an answer you can check. Answers quote and cite the exact provisions they rely on. They also make clear how much weight each source carries: the law binds, while guidance is the authority's view.
5. Keep going. Ask follow-up questions to dig deeper, or switch to another source type to see what it adds.

Two ways to ask

• Interactive: quick back-and-forth for everyday questions.
• Advisory: a fuller written analysis for questions that need more depth.

Staying current

We routinely monitor our sources for updates.

What it is not

Ask Me Tax is a research tool, not a tax adviser. It can misread a question or a passage, and the law can change at any time. Always confirm anything important against the cited source, and speak to a qualified adviser when the stakes are high.
