USD taxable income taxed at a max rate of 15%. Tax liable from April 2025 onwards. You need to pay quarterly payments starting from August 2025. Spot exchange rate can be used to convert the amounts to LKR.

Spot exchange rates cannot be used for tax purposes because they differ from the actual bank buying rates.

For example, if I receive USD 1,000:

• Spot rate: LKR 299 → LKR 299,000
• Bank buying rate: LKR 294 → LKR 294,000

By using the spot rate, my income is overstated by LKR 5,000, which I never actually received.
If this happens for three months, I end up paying tax on an additional LKR 15,000—money that doesn’t exist in my account.
