Frequently asked questions
Mandatory registration is required if your taxable supplies exceed AED 375,000 in the past 12 months or are expected to exceed this in the next 30 days. Voluntary registration is available from AED 187,500. We assess your position and handle the registration with the FTA.
VAT returns are typically filed quarterly, though the FTA may assign monthly filing for larger businesses. Each return covers a specific tax period and must be submitted within 28 days of the end of that period.
The standard rate is 5%, which is significantly lower than the UK's 20%. Certain supplies are zero-rated (e.g., exports, international transport) or exempt (e.g., residential property, financial services). We ensure your VAT return correctly classifies all your supplies.
