FAQ
What is VAT in the UAE?
VAT is a consumption tax applied through the supply chain and usually borne by the final consumer. The standard UAE VAT rate used by this calculator is 5%.
How do I calculate VAT-exclusive prices in Dubai?
Multiply the net amount by 5% to get VAT, then add that VAT to the net amount. For 1,000 AED, VAT is 50 AED and the gross amount is 1,050 AED.
How do I reverse calculate VAT from a UAE total?
Divide the VAT-inclusive amount by 1.05 to find the net amount. Subtract the net amount from the total to find the VAT portion.
Can I use this for tax invoices?
You can use the result as a calculation aid for invoice preparation. Your actual UAE tax invoice should still follow FTA requirements and your accountant's review.
Does UAE VAT apply to every transaction?
No. Some supplies can be zero-rated or exempt under UAE VAT rules. Confirm the correct treatment with official FTA guidance or a qualified adviser.
