VAT Registration Services UAE
VAT Registration Is Mandatory Once You Hit the Threshold. And the FTA Penalizes Late Registration.
Every business in the UAE whose taxable supplies and imports exceed the mandatory registration threshold must register for VAT with the Federal Tax Authority. Voluntary registration is available for businesses below the mandatory threshold but above the voluntary threshold. Jazaa handles your VAT registration from document preparation through TRN issuance, ensuring your application is complete and accurate on first submission.
Who Must Register for VAT
VAT registration is mandatory for any taxable person whose taxable supplies and imports exceed the mandatory threshold within a twelve-month period, or are expected to exceed it in the next thirty days. Voluntary registration is available when taxable supplies, imports, or taxable expenses exceed the voluntary threshold.
Free Zone Registration Requirements
Free zone companies are not exempt from VAT registration. Even businesses operating in designated zones must register if they meet the threshold criteria. The VAT treatment of their supplies may differ, but the registration obligation is the same.
