What is VAT?
VAT (Value Added Tax) is an indirect tax initially with a very nominal rate i.e. 5%, applicable for most of the goods and businesses.
Though UAE government has exempted food items, education and healthcare services from VAT but people can notice a little rise in their cost of living.
However, it needs to be considered that VAT will not strain the wallets much but allows the high living standards not only to remain high but improving.
To comply with VAT and related legal requirements businesses need to make changes in their existing processes.
Companies have to ensure that their accounts or records are well managed according to the new VAT regulations implemented by the government effective from 1st Jan 2018.
If a business in UAE exceeding AED 375,000 with the supplies and imports of goods/services subject to tax then it must register for VAT as per the Federal Tax Authority.
As per FTA, all businesses must ensure the recording of their financial transactions, apart from that VAT registration requirements have done and ledgers are updated in time to avoid penalties.

A VAT-registered business collects VAT on behalf of UAE Federal Tax Authority (FTA), and in doing so, it is entitled to claim VAT paid on expenses incurred on products/services for the business.
