The United Arab Emirates imposed VAT on each stage of the supply chain from January 1, 2018. This VAT compliance is mandatory by the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) otherwise the taxable entities are being penalized. The authorities can anytime announce a VAT inspection of your financial records and transactions. We are here to get you covered by our expert VAT audit services in Dubai, which will critically evaluate your tax collections, payments, and VAT compliance. Before auditors verify the accuracy of your tax handling, our staff examines overall system flaws in accordance with FTA guidelines and assists you in necessary rectifications to avoid hefty penalties during an FTA audit.
What Is A VAT Audit?
VAT audits in UAE refer to an official inspection of tax records, and books of account by the Federal Tax Authority. In this way, tax auditors identify the VAT non-compliance as per UAE tax laws. The main objective of these VAT audits is to increase financial stability and fair implication of taxation in the United Arab Emirates.
According to the Tax Procedures Law, the VAT/ Tax Audit is only conducted by the UAE official regulatory agency called as Federal Tax Authority (FTA). Under the Federal Law by Decree No. 13 of 2016, the authority is responsible for examining and collecting taxes in a specified time frame. When a taxable business non-compliances with the VAT laws the authority charges heavy fines and penalties.Importance Of VAT Pre-Audit Health Check
The VAT pre-audit health check is as important as the VAT registration, VAT refund or returns filing, and other VAT compliance activities. This is a proactive approach for small and large companies to prevent unexpected fines and penalties. The tax audit in UAE is determined whether the taxable entity follows VAT laws and regulations or not. This assessment is better to perform prior to saving the business from non-compliance with value-added tax. The pre-audit health check verifies all your tax-related documents and records and notifies the organization about the flaws in the current system. Our accountants and VAT experts in Dubai suggest to you the best tax policies, strategies, and procedures as per FTA standards.
There are no proper criteria for selecting a company for VAT audit in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and any other Emirates. It is not mandated that all taxable entities will be audited by the Federal Tax Authority. There is no specified time, place, or frequency of conducting an audit. It totally depends upon the relevant authorities when they select a business for official tax scrutiny. Following are some factors considered while selecting any target for auditing.
Under the Tax Procedures Law, the official regulatory FTA in the UAE is responsible for conducting a tax audit. The authorities notify the registered business at least five days prior to the inspection. The VAT audit in Dubai is mostly conducted on business days for any reason. The authorities decide the place of audit, a sample of goods, and request original or copied documents. The FTA’s tax auditors will inspect the tax returns and other related information while conducting a tax audit in the UAE.
The tax agents and legal representative presence is recommended to assist the FTA VAT auditors. If the auditors find any flaws or irregularities in the records, then they have the right to re-audit the taxable business anytime.
