Tax profile

What makes you a tax resident — and how hard it is to stop being one.

• 120 days in Palestine during the tax year
• employed during any period of the year by the Palestinian Authority or a local authority
• 183 days for a non-Palestinian person

The official rule is largely day-count based, so leaving and staying below the 120-day threshold generally ends residency. A separate trigger exists for anyone employed by the Palestinian Authority or a local authority, but there is no official citizenship-, domicile-, or deemed-domicile-based continuing residency rule in the guidance used here.
