A non registered person will be automatically treated as a consumer and will end up paying tax without availing tax credit. It is therefore necessary to get registered.

The very first step for the businesses is to get registered under the value added tax. Taxable persons with a minimum taxable turnover of AED 375,000 and above should get registered. The official website of the Federal Tax Authority www.tax.gov.ae provides the online facility of e-services. The entire process of the VAT registration is online.
