VAT registration is mandatory when taxable supplies cross the UAE threshold set by the Federal Tax Authority. Businesses below the mandatory threshold may still benefit from voluntary registration if they meet the qualifying expense or supply level.
Key VAT registration steps
- Review taxable supplies and expected revenue.
- Prepare trade license, Emirates ID, passport, bank, and financial documents.
- Submit accurate information through the FTA portal.
- Display the Tax Registration Number on invoices after approval.
