Why VAT Matters for Your Business?

VAT in the UAE impacts how you price, invoice, manage cash flow, and report to the Federal Tax Authority, so it cannot be treated as a simple box‑ticking exercise. Done well, VAT management protects you from penalties, preserves margins, and even improves liquidity through timely input tax recovery.

FAQs

How can you help with VAT in the UAE?

Prema Consulting supports you across the full VAT lifecycle, from assessing whether you must register to handling filings, reconciliations, and FTA queries for your UAE business. This ensures you stay compliant while focusing on operations rather than tax admin.

Can you manage VAT registration and TRN issuance?

What if my business receives an FTA audit or penalty notice?

If you face an FTA review, audit, or penalty, Prema Consulting helps gather documentation, respond to notices, and prepare reconsideration or voluntary disclosure requests where appropriate. The aim is to reduce risk, correct errors, and protect your position with the authorities.

Can you optimise my VAT position?

Beyond routine compliance, Prema Consulting reviews your contracts, pricing, and supply chains to identify opportunities for better input tax recovery and correct use of zero-rating or exemptions. This approach can improve cash flow and reduce unnecessary VAT leakage over time.

Do you offer VAT training or system setup support?
