VAT registration — a mandatory FTA requirement

If a company's turnover exceeds the set threshold, VAT registration is mandatory. Without it, you can't legally issue VAT invoices, keep records to FTA requirements, or avoid fines for late registration.

What's included in this service:

  • We'll check whether registration is actually required
  • We'll obtain the VAT certificate and TRN for the company
  • We'll register the company with the FTA
  • We'll explain how to issue VAT invoices and keep records
You definitely need this service if:
Annual turnover exceeds AED 375,000
You're a sole proprietor or freelancer whose income has reached the threshold
You want to register voluntarily with turnover from AED 187,500
You're planning to enter the wholesale or import market with a VAT number

Frequently asked questions
What are VAT and TRN?
VAT is a value-added tax (5% in the UAE). TRN is the Tax Registration Number assigned to a company after registration and shown on every VAT invoice.
When is a company required to register for VAT?
Registration is mandatory once annual turnover reaches AED 375,000. With turnover from AED 187,500, you can register voluntarily — this can be advantageous when working with large partners or with imports.
What documents are needed to register for VAT?
The trade licence, incorporation documents, the company's bank details, the owner's passport and Emirates ID, and proof of turnover (statements, contracts). The exact list depends on the company's structure.
