Understand when registration applies.
Mandatory registration
For UAE-resident businesses, taxable supplies and imports exceeding AED 375,000 over the previous 12 months, or expected to exceed it in the next 30 days, generally trigger registration.
Voluntary registration
Eligible businesses may apply when taxable supplies and imports or taxable expenses exceed AED 187,500 over the previous 12 months, or are expected to exceed it in the next 30 days.
Your facts determine the result
Non-resident businesses and specific transactions can have different rules. Zero-rated and exempt supplies are distinct and need correct classification.
Official guidance: FTA — VAT registration.

What is input VAT versus output VAT?
Input VAT relates to purchases; output VAT relates to taxable sales. Whether input VAT can be recovered depends on the applicable rules.
Is a refund guaranteed if input VAT exceeds output VAT?
No. Eligibility, supporting evidence and the FTA’s review determine a refund application. We can help prepare and reconcile the records.
Can you guarantee there will be no penalties?
No. Timely, accurate records and filings reduce risk, but outcomes depend on your facts and compliance obligations.
Can related companies form a VAT group?
A VAT group is subject to specific eligibility and approval requirements. Common ownership alone is not sufficient; ask for a review of your entities.
