HomeServicesVAT Registration

In the UAE, Value Added Tax (VAT) was introduced on 1 January 2018 at a standard rate of
5%. If your business makes taxable supplies exceeding the mandatory threshold of AED
375,000 in the past 12 months or is expected to do so in the next 30 days, VAT registration
with the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) is legally required.
Even if you’re below the mandatory threshold, businesses earning more than AED 187,500
can register voluntarily to gain VAT recovery benefits and enhance their credibility.
