VAT Solutions
VAT looks simple at 5%. The compliance behind it is not.
Charge 5% on sales, reclaim VAT on purchases, file a return every quarter. That is the theory. In practice, UAE businesses wrestle with questions every week: Is this supply taxable or exempt? Can we recover VAT on this expense? How do we treat this free zone transaction? What happens if we filed the last return wrong? And underneath it all, the penalties: AED 10,000 for late registration, thousands more for late or incorrect filings.
VAT mistakes are expensive precisely because they compound quietly until the FTA notices.
Inspire MS Tax Consultancy is a leading VAT consultancy in the UAE. Our FTA-approved VAT consultants in Dubai and Abu Dhabi handle everything VAT: registration, return filing, refunds, deregistration, audit support, and penalty resolution. You focus on business; we keep your VAT flawless.
FTA Approved Tax Agency (TAN#30001622) | Established 2019 | Abu Dhabi and Dubai
Our Approach
A VAT consultant advises businesses on the correct application of UAE VAT law and manages their VAT compliance. Our VAT consultancy services cover the full lifecycle:
Threshold assessment, application preparation, and TRN issuance through EmaraTax. Correct from the start, because late registration costs AED 10,000.
Accurate preparation and timely submission of your VAT returns within the 28-day deadline, every period, with full reconciliations behind every figure.
Complete VAT record-keeping: sales and purchase ledgers, input/output VAT tracking, and documentation organised for five-year retention requirements.
If your input VAT exceeds output VAT, you may be due a refund. We prepare robust refund applications with the documentation the FTA expects, and follow up until payment.
Formal closure of VAT registration when your business closes, restructures, or falls below thresholds: final returns, liability settlement, TRN deactivation.
When the FTA opens a VAT audit, we represent you: preparing documentation, responding to queries, attending meetings, and protecting your position.
Voluntary disclosures for past errors, reconsideration requests against unfair penalties, and structured resolution of outstanding VAT liabilities.
A VAT consultant on call for your everyday questions: transaction treatment, contract structuring, new business lines, and regulatory updates.
Determining your phase, appointing an Accredited Service Provider before the deadline, and configuring your systems for Peppol PINT-AE exchange. Mandatory go-live is 1 January 2027 for businesses with revenue of AED 50 million or more, and 1 July 2027 for all other businesses.
Cabinet Decision No. 149 of 2026 amended the VAT Executive Regulation from 1 October 2026: credit notes must now be labelled "Tax Credit Note", economically inseparable components are treated as a single supply, and input tax apportionment moves to an output-based method from late 2027. We review your invoicing and accounting against the new rules.
Our VAT consultants work across the sectors that drive the UAE economy: trading and distribution, contracting and construction, manufacturing, professional services, real estate, hospitality, healthcare, transport and logistics, e-commerce, and free zone businesses. Each sector has VAT nuances; we know them.

Trusted Connections
We collaborate with trusted partners who share our vision for excellence and lasting success.
The standard VAT rate is 5% on most goods and services. Certain supplies are zero-rated (such as qualifying exports) or exempt (such as certain financial services and residential real estate). Correct classification is a key part of VAT consultancy.
Mandatory registration applies when taxable supplies exceed AED 375,000 in the previous 12 months or are expected to exceed it in the next 30 days. You must notify the FTA within 30 days of becoming liable. The late registration penalty is AED 10,000.
Most businesses file quarterly, within 28 days of the end of each tax period. Businesses with annual turnover of AED 150 million or more are generally assigned monthly filing by the FTA. Late filing penalties start at AED 1,000 for a first offence.
Yes, and this is one of the most valuable services. An experienced VAT consultant prepares your documentation, responds to FTA queries professionally, attends audit meetings with you, and ensures your position is properly represented.
If you discover errors in past VAT returns, small errors (below AED 10,000 of tax difference) can usually be corrected in your next return. Larger errors must be corrected through a formal voluntary disclosure on EmaraTax. Disclosing voluntarily results in significantly lower penalties than having the FTA discover the error in an audit, and we prepare and file every disclosure properly.
When your recoverable input VAT exceeds the output VAT you collected, the excess can be claimed as a refund or carried forward. Refund claims require proper documentation and FTA verification. We prepare claims that get approved.
Filing is only part of VAT compliance. A VAT consultant provides the expertise behind the filing: correct transaction treatment, strategic advice, audit defence, and penalty resolution. Many businesses use both: an accountant for records, a consultant for VAT strategy and compliance assurance.
It depends on your transaction volume and service scope: from periodic return filing for small businesses to full VAT management for larger operations. We provide fixed, transparent quotes after a free initial discussion.
Whether you need a one-time registration or a long-term VAT partner, talk to consultants the FTA itself has approved.
