opportunities and an equal number of challenges. It is among the most complex
and demanding tax systems that companies find hard to cope with. A trained
professional who can supervise you on the pros and cons of the system and who
can act as a mediator between you and the Federal Tax Authority is more than
mandatory. They will aid you through the various phases of VAT implementation
in UAE and will also aid in achieving tax compliance, carrying out legal
activities, managing records and preparing and filing a VAT return. They are
trustworthy and ethical, but you need to ensure that you appoint the right one.
