VAT Refund Service in UAE
A VAT refund becomes applicable when the input tax exceeds the output tax on a VAT return, enabling taxpayers to reclaim Value-Added Tax (VAT). Efficiently recovering VAT is a pivotal component of a robust indirect tax strategy. Timely and comprehensive preparation of the VAT refund application, along with adherence to all procedural requirements, is essential to expedite the VAT tax refund process. Failure to do so may result in significant delays that can adversely impact a business’s financial management.

Challenges in VAT Refund Recovery
Recovering VAT refunds involves stringent criteria imposed by tax authorities. Several barriers hinder the successful retrieval of VAT refunds, including:
- Limited Understanding of Complex Indirect Tax Rules
- Challenging Administrative Procedures
- Inadequate or Incorrect Documentation
- Missed Deadlines for Federal Tax Authority Responses
Unclaimed tax credits and delayed refunds often result in negative cash flow and tax leakage, leading to increased business costs and reduced profitability. VAT refund recovery can be a complex journey, and our services are designed to streamline the process while safeguarding your financial interests.

Excess Input Tax

Treating VAT Refundable as per UAE VAT Laws
Taxpayers have two options for handling excess input VAT, often referred to as VAT refundable:
- Request a VAT Refund: Taxpayers can opt to request a refund of the excess input VAT, facilitating a direct reimbursement process.
- Carry Forward: Alternatively, if a taxpayer chooses not to request an immediate refund, the excess recoverable tax can be carried forward to subsequent tax periods. It can then be utilized to offset against future payable taxes and/or penalties. The taxpayer also retains the option to apply for a refund at a later time.
