FAQ

Questions we hear every week.

Anything else, message us on WhatsApp and a consultant replies during office hours.

Ask on WhatsApp
Can I get just one VAT service, for example a refund claim?

Yes. Each service is quoted separately. Many clients start with one task and later move to a monthly compliance package.

What is a VAT tax group?

Two or more related UAE resident companies under common control can register as one taxable person. Supplies between members are disregarded and one consolidated return is filed.

What happens if I find an error in a filed return?

If the error exceeds AED 10,000 in tax you must file a voluntary disclosure within 20 business days of discovering it. Smaller errors can be corrected in the next return. Acting quickly reduces penalties.
