The UAE, following in other countries’ footsteps is increasingly focussing on indirect tax including VAT. VAT is a transaction based consumption tax that needs continuous monitoring for effective and timely compliance. Tax assessments, audits and enforcement measures are also becoming increasingly sophisticated, with a focus on common errors and industry specific issues.
The UAE, for the first time, introduced Value Added Tax (VAT) on 1 January 2018.
Frequent changes in tax policies and tax laws have become the norms of the day and are often seen sending confusing signals to the hugely stressed internal tax teams. Businesses are anxious about how these new indirect tax laws would affect them and how they could remain compliant ahead of time.
At IMC, our seasoned tax professionals are pretty much aware of this rapidly evolving VAT norms and regulatory environment in UAE and can design tailor-made solutions for you to address VAT issues timely and satisfactorily.
