Who Our VAT Service is for
New companies near the threshold
You’re growing fast. You need someone to watch the AED 375,000 line for you.
E-commerce sellers
You sell on Amazon.ae, Noon or your own store. Your marketplace reports must match your VAT returns. Refunds and fees often break that match.
Free zone companies
Many owners think free zone means no VAT. That’s wrong for most businesses. Only some goods moved between designated zones (special customs areas) get special treatment.
Consultants with foreign clients
Services to clients outside the UAE can be zero-rated. Strict conditions apply, so we check each contract. You still register and file, and you often get VAT back on your costs.
Property and construction firms
You often mix standard-rated, zero-rated and exempt supplies. You can only claim part of your input VAT. The split needs a proper method.
Foreign businesses selling in the UAE
A non-resident company may need to register from its first taxable sale. The usual threshold may not apply. We check your case.
Registered businesses behind on returns
You have late returns or messy records. We clean up the backlog and file what’s missing.
When should you hire a VAT Consultant
Common signs you need help now:
- Your sales are close to the AED 375,000 registration line, or will pass it in the next 30 days.
- You missed a filing or payment date, or you’re about to.
- The FTA sent you a letter or opened an audit.
- You sell zero-rated, exempt and standard-rated items together.
- Your returns don’t match your books or marketplace reports.
You must register once taxable sales pass AED 375,000 in 12 months, under the Federal Tax Authority’s registration rules. Not sure where you stand? Your free check answers it. The full rules on when to register for VAT are in our guide.
Waiting costs money. Late registration alone brings an AED 10,000 fine. Each late return and late payment adds more. See the full list of UAE VAT penalties before you decide to wait.
How We Work: Registration to Filing
In 30 minutes, we look at your sales, costs and current VAT status. You learn where you stand straight away.
It’s based on your real transaction volume.
We register you, or we take over from your current accountant. You give us EmaraTax access. We handle the handover.
Our VAT return filing services cover every period. You send your invoices, bills and bank statements, or give us read access to your accounting software. We prepare the return, send it for your approval and file it. Then we remind you to pay before the due date.
We answer FTA letters, track rule changes and tell you what they mean for you.
VAT fees: what does it cost?
Your corporate tax fee depends on your business. We give you a fixed quote after the free consultation – nothing hidden.
What sets your price
- Transactions.
More invoices and bills mean more checking time. - Books.
Clean books make returns fast. A backlog needs bookkeeping first. - Supplies.
Zero-rated, exempt or mixed supplies take extra work. - Catch-up work.
Late returns or voluntary disclosures cost extra, once.
Many clients bundle VAT with their bookkeeping. Our bookkeeping and VAT services in the UAE start from AED 3,000 a year. That package includes VAT consultation.
Why businesses choose DASA for VAT
If we keep your books, your returns come straight from them. The numbers match.
The same records feed both taxes, so you can add corporate tax services at any time.
We’re part of the UK-based DASA Group.
We tell you what the rule means for your business in plain words.
Some VAT consultants only file what you send them. We check it first. A wrong return costs more than a late one.
Common questions about VAT consultancy in Dubai
Can you take over from my current accountant?
Yes. You give us access to your EmaraTax account and your records. We check your last returns for errors before we file the next one. The switch doesn’t change your TRN or your filing dates.
I missed a VAT deadline. What should I do?
File the return and pay the tax as soon as you can. The late payment penalty grows every month. If an old return has errors, a voluntary disclosure usually costs less than an FTA finding. Call us the same day.
Do free zone companies pay VAT?
Yes, most do. A free zone company registers and charges VAT like any other business. Some goods moved between designated zones get special treatment. Services don’t. We check how the rules apply to your activity.
What's the difference between a VAT consultant and an FTA tax agent?
An FTA tax agent appears on the FTA’s official list of tax agents. A tax agent can represent you in your dealings with the FTA. Many VAT consultants aren’t registered tax agents. Ask any VAT consultant for their agent number before you sign.
Do I need a VAT consultant if I use accounting software?
Software records your numbers. It doesn’t know if a supply is zero-rated or exempt. It can’t answer an FTA letter either. Many clients keep their software and use us for checks and filing.
