FTA Portal UAE

If your business meets the criteria for VAT registration, you need to make sure that the business information and financial records you uploaded on the FTA UAE  portal are complete and updated. Failure to comply with this rule can result in hefty penalties and fines. In fact, the FTA (UAE) has imposed a fine of AED 5000 if a business fails at complying with VAT guidelines the first time, and a fine of AED 15000 for repetitive breaches.

While the VAT registration is not difficult, it’s still a time-consuming process that requires a whole lot of paperwork and approvals. Its also worth noting that accounting for VAT is an ongoing commitment; you need to routinely maintain and update your financial records to avoid extra charges and penalties. That’s exactly why you should begin looking up accounting companies in Dubai  already.

Hiring a VAT accountant is a cost-effective and practical way to simplify VAT accounting in the UAE. VAT accountants can maintain your transaction history, keep your financial records updated according to FTA guidelines and offer you valuable local insight.
