Understanding VAT in the UAE
VAT is a consumption tax levied on goods and services at every stage of the supply chain. The standard VAT rate in the UAE is 5%, and businesses that exceed the mandatory registration threshold of AED 375,000 in annual taxable turnover are required to register for VAT. Even businesses with lower turnover may benefit from voluntary registration to reclaim input VAT on business purchases.
Compliance with VAT regulations requires proper invoicing, accurate record-keeping, and timely submission of VAT returns. At GCC Accounting, we ensure that your business remains VAT-compliant while helping you optimize your VAT strategy to improve cash flow and reduce liabilities.
