End-to-End Value Added Tax Advisory, Registration, Filing & Audit Representation
Complete VAT lifecycle management for UAE businesses, ensuring FTA tax law compliance, quarterly filings, input tax optimization, and penalty protection.

Value Added Tax (VAT) was introduced in the UAE on January 1, 2018, at a standard rate of 5%. Managing VAT compliance requires meticulous record-keeping, precise calculations of output and input taxes, and strict adherence to Federal Tax Authority (FTA) deadlines. Chartered Growth Consultants provides complete VAT advisory, from mandatory registration and quarterly return filings to complex FTA tax audit defense and refund claims.
Under UAE Federal Decree-Law No. (8) of 2017 on Value Added Tax, failure to submit VAT returns within the specified timeframe results in immediate administrative penalties. Voluntary registration allows startups to recover input tax on initial capital expenditure.

Free Zone entities located within designated zones (DZs) may qualify for 0% VAT on certain goods transfers, provided strict compliance conditions set by the FTA are met.
The FTA assigns filing periods based on annual turnover, usually quarterly (every 3 months) or monthly for higher turnover enterprises.
