The United Arab Emirates (UAE) implemented a Value Added Tax (VAT) on January 1, 2018, in a bid to diversify its revenue sources. VAT, a consumption tax, is applied to most goods and services supplied within the UAE. The standard VAT rate is 5%, but certain goods and services may have reduced rates or be exempt.
Navigating the intricacies of VAT can be daunting, as it involves understanding various laws and regulations. This comprehensive course aims to equip you with the knowledge and skills necessary to ensure compliance with UAE VAT laws. Through expert guidance and practical examples, you will delve into key topics such as VAT registration, invoicing, accounting for VAT, filing returns, and handling VAT audits.
This is the right choice for you if you are a Tax manager, Finance manager, a Tax lawyer or consultant responsible for the administration of VAT in your organisation or if you are in a VAT regulatory role in the private or public sector.
It can also be a great booster to earn the Diploma if you are exploring a career as a tax professional.
Note: The UAE VAT Compliance Diploma is one of the mandatory requirements to become a Tax Agent in UAE.
