To solve this question, we share some of the things to keep in mind while selecting VAT Consultants in Dubai. But before that, let us check-in and understand a little more about VAT.

Value-added Tax (VAT) is an indirect tax levied across 150 countries. VAT is charged on most supplies of goods and services that are bought and sold at each step of the “supply chain.” A business pays the government the tax that it collects from the customers. At the same time, it may also receive a refund from the government on tax that it has paid to its suppliers. The net result is that tax receipts to the government reflect the “value add” throughout the supply chain. Currently, the VAT rate is 5%.
