Understanding UAE VAT

How VAT is calculated, explained in simple terms.

Official UAE VAT guidance

Multiply the VAT-exclusive amount by 1.05 to calculate the total including VAT.

Example: AED 1,000 + AED 50 VAT = AED 1,050.

Divide the VAT-inclusive amount by 1.05 to calculate the amount before VAT.

Example: AED 1,050 ÷ 1.05 = AED 1,000 before VAT, with AED 50 VAT included.

No. The standard VAT rate is 5%, but some supplies are zero-rated, exempt or outside the scope of UAE VAT. This calculator assumes the transaction is subject to standard-rated UAE VAT and does not determine its tax treatment.
