Excise Tax Advisory Services in Dubai, UAE
By introducing the excise tax in 2017, the UAE’s government significantly affected the nation’s long-standing tax-free reputation. This tax is subjected to those businesses operating in the Emirates that deal with specific harmful products for human health and the environment, including tobacco, carbonated and energy drinks, etc. The main vision behind the introduction of the excise tax was to reduce the consumption of harmful and unhealthy products and increase revenue generation for beneficial public services.
Arabian Wingz, the industry leader in finance and tax services in UAE, assists eligible businesses for excise tax in Dubai in navigating the complex process of accurate tax filing to avoid any legal consequences. Our expert excise tax advisors guarantee the correct and timely filing of our valuable clients’ excise tax liabilities, as they are well-versed in the guidelines, regulations, requirements, and processes associated with this tax.


Who Needs to Register for Excise Tax in Dubai?
After consulting with the Federal Supreme Council, the UAE’s President introduced 2017 Federal Decree Law No. 7, which subjected excise tax to all the businesses involved in the export, manufacturing, stockpiling, and warehouse storing of specific goods eligible for excise tax in the country. This law clarified that all eligible businesses must comply with it and timely fill their tax liabilities to avoid severe consequences due to non-compliance.
When Should You Register for Excise Tax in Dubai?
Unlike VAT, an indirect tax in the UAE has a revenue/turnover limit for obtaining registration. Excise tax in Dubai, UAE, does not have any specific limit, and any business eligible for it can register for this tax via FTA’s Emaratax portal. However, it is recommended that businesses secure excise tax registration within 30 days from the date they started operations of the activities that fall under this tax’s eligibility criteria.
