Why Professional Assistance Matters

Responsibilities of a VAT-Registered Person

VAT Invoicing
Issue valid VAT invoices for all taxable supplies, including specific details such as the VAT registration number, invoice date, description of goods or services, and VAT amount. Ensure invoices are sequential, correctly formatted, and comply with FTA requirements.
Tax Calculation and Collection
Accurately calculate the VAT amount payable on taxable supplies by applying the appropriate VAT rate (standard, zero-rated, or exempt). Collect VAT from customers on taxable supplies and separate it from the business's revenue.
VAT Record Keeping
Maintain comprehensive and organized records of all VAT transactions, invoices, and financial documents for at least five years. Businesses in the UAE should maintain accurate records of all VAT transactions, invoices, and financial documents. The FTA may conduct VAT audits to ensure compliance. Ensure records are readily available for inspection by FTA auditors.
Accurate and Timely VAT Return Filing
All businesses registered for VAT in the UAE are required to file VAT returns within the specified timeframe. Failure to do so can result in penalties and legal consequences. VAT Return discloses the tax amount due (or refundable, if applicable) for a specific tax period. This is the amount a business owes to the tax authority or is eligible to receive as a refund. VAT returns must comply with UAE VAT law. This means that businesses must accurately report their taxable transactions, ensuring they follow all relevant regulations.
Timely Payment
In addition to filing the return, businesses are also required to pay the due tax amount to the tax authority within the specified timeframe as mandated by law.
Correct Errors in VAT Returns
If a business discovers errors or omissions in their previous VAT returns, such as incorrect input tax or output tax calculations, they are required to make adjustments or amendments to the previously filed VAT returns if errors are discovered. This must be done through the VAT Voluntary Disclosure Submission mechanism.
Compliance with VAT Regulations
Ensure compliance with all VAT laws, regulations, and guidelines issued by the FTA.
