What is Vat and How does it works in UAE?
Value Added Tax or VAT is a tax on the consumption or use of goods and services levied at each point of sale. VAT is a form of indirect tax and is levied in more than 180 countries around the world.

UAE introduced VAT on Jan 2018, the rate of vat is 5% and it will provide UAE a new source to be utilized in providing high-quality public services.

VAT-registered businesses collect the amount on behalf of the government; Consumers bear the VAT in the form of a 5% increase in the cost of taxable goods and services they purchase in the UAE.

A business must register for VAT if its taxable supplies and imports exceed AED 375,000 per annum. It is optional for businesses whose supplies and imports exceed AED 187,500 per annum.

Frequently Asked Questions

VAT applies equally on tax-registered businesses managed on the UAE mainland and in the free zones.

However, if the UAE Cabinet defines a certain free zone as a 'designated zone', it must be treated as outside the UAE for tax purposes. The transfer of goods between designated zones are tax-free.
