VAT you do not have to worry about
Registration, accurate returns, refund claims, health checks and FTA representation — prepared by specialists and reviewed by a registered tax agent before anything is filed.
Small VAT errors become expensive quickly
Late or inaccurate returns lead to penalties and lost input tax recovery. Most businesses come to us at one of five moments.
VAT has become a last-minute scramble every period
- You are registering for the first time, or unsure whether you must register at all.
- Returns go out late or inconsistently, prepared at the last minute from incomplete records.
- A refund you are entitled to is not coming through, or you are not sure how to claim it.
- The FTA has written to you — a clarification, a query or an audit notice — and you need a considered reply.
- You are closing or restructuring and need to deregister cleanly.
Each of these has a right way to be handled — and a cost when it is not.
VAT that is right, recoverable and on time
- We confirm whether registration is mandatory or voluntary for you, and register you correctly.
- Returns are reconciled to your records and reviewed by a registered tax agent before filing.
- Refund claims are prepared with the evidence the FTA expects, so recoverable input tax is actually claimed.
- We correspond with the FTA on your behalf — clarifications, queries and audits — as a registered tax agency.
- Deregistration is filed properly, with the final return and records in order.

Everything VAT compliance actually requires
Six deliverables that cover the whole VAT lifecycle — from the first registration to the last return.
VAT registration & TRN
IncludedWe confirm whether registration is mandatory or voluntary, prepare a complete application and obtain your Tax Registration Number without avoidable back-and-forth.
Return preparation & filing
Agent-reviewedOutput and input VAT reconciled to your records every tax period, reviewed by a registered tax agent, approved by you and filed within the FTA deadline.
VAT refund claims
IncludedWhen input tax exceeds output tax, we prepare the refund claim with the supporting evidence the FTA expects and follow it through to the outcome.
VAT health check & reviews
IncludedA structured review of your treatments, invoices and past returns that finds errors before the FTA does — and, where needed, corrects earlier periods through a voluntary disclosure.
FTA representation, clarifications & audits
IncludedAs a registered tax agency we correspond with the FTA for you: clarification requests, responses to queries, and preparation and representation during a tax audit.
VAT deregistration
IncludedWhen your business closes, restructures or falls below the threshold, we file the deregistration, the final return and close the position properly.
You receive the filed return, the computation behind it and the registered tax agent's sign-off — in writing.
A period in one view
Output VAT charged, input VAT recovered and the net position — the three figures every return reconciles.
Six documents start almost every VAT engagement
You do not need everything on day one. We send you a structured document request and work from what you have.
- Trade licence and the establishment cardFor each entity in scope, including branches
- TRN or registration details if you are already registeredYour FTA portal access stays with you
- Sales and purchase records for the periodExports from Zoho, Xero, QuickBooks, Tally, Sage or Wave, or a spreadsheet
- Tax invoices issued and receivedWe check that they meet the FTA's requirements before input tax is claimed
- Bank statements for the periodUsed to reconcile what was invoiced with what was actually received and paid
- Prior VAT returns and any FTA correspondenceSo we start from your actual position, not an assumed one
A first review at one table
Your returns and records on the table, our questions beside them. A specialist prepares, a senior reviews, and the registered tax agent signs off the tax position before anything is filed.
How the VAT cycle runs
UAE VAT is governed by Federal Decree-Law No. 8 of 2017. Every tax period follows the same five steps — we run them so that nothing depends on memory.
A named agent on the FTA register — not a mailbox
A tax agent registered with the Federal Tax Authority can act and correspond on a taxable person's behalf. At AL TAMAYUZ that responsibility sits with a named person, and his registration is public.
In practice it means three things for you: every return is reviewed by the agent before it is filed, FTA correspondence can be handled directly by the agency, and you can verify the credential yourself on the FTA's own register.
Four steps, and you approve before anything is filed
The same sequence every period — your document requests, approvals and status are handled in one organised place, through your dedicated team.

Questions we answer every week
Registration is mandatory once taxable supplies exceed the mandatory registration threshold under UAE VAT law; a voluntary option exists below it. Whether you have crossed it depends on how your supplies are classified. We confirm your position in writing and, where required, prepare and submit the application.
Administrative penalties for late filing and late payment exist under UAE tax law and grow the longer a period stays open. We track your tax period, prepare the return early and ask for your approval in good time. If a period is already late, we assess the exposure and bring it up to date.
Yes. AL TAMAYUZ is an FTA-registered tax agency (Tax Agency Reg. No. 30001887) with a registered tax agent, so we can act and correspond with the FTA on your behalf: clarification requests, responses to queries and representation during a tax audit. You remain the taxable person; we handle the correspondence.
The FTA determines the processing time, so we do not quote a fixed number of days. A complete application with the right supporting documents is the biggest factor in avoiding requests for more information, and that part we control. We prepare the file with you, submit it and follow it until your TRN is issued.
Scope first. The fee depends on your tax period, transaction volume, the state of your records and whether earlier periods need correcting. After a short consultation you receive a written quote for a defined scope, and no work begins until you approve it. Ongoing filing is quoted per period, so the cost stays predictable.
Yes. Earlier periods are corrected through a voluntary disclosure, the FTA's mechanism for amending a return already filed. We review the affected periods to quantify the error, then prepare the disclosure with supporting workings. Correcting a known error is almost always better than leaving it in place.
Every return is reconciled to your records and reviewed by a registered tax agent before it reaches the FTA.
