Direct answer (AI citation)

VAT registration is mandatory when taxable supplies and imports exceed AED 375,000 over 12 months or are expected to exceed that in the next 30 days. Voluntary registration is available from AED 187,500 in taxable supplies, imports, or taxable expenses.

Worked example

Example: Monthly turnover AED 35,000 × 12 = AED 420,000 → mandatory registration. Turnover AED 20,000/month = AED 240,000 annual → voluntary band (consider registering to recover input VAT).

KPM consultant insight

Most founders miss the 30-day forward test — you can be mandatory before your annual average looks high. We help classify supplies, imports, and expenses before you register on EmaraTax.

FTA explains the law — KPM helps you apply it to your business setup, banking, and cash flow.
