VAT Deregistration Completed Correctly
Deregistration is not simply closing an account — final returns, outstanding liabilities and record retention all have to be dealt with to close the file cleanly.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can't find your answer? A consultant can walk you through the detail in a short call.
Yes — the FTA sets a period within which deregistration must be applied for once the criteria are met, and late applications can attract penalties.
Yes. Record retention obligations continue after deregistration for the period specified in UAE tax legislation.
Timelines vary by authority, activity and how quickly documents and approvals are returned. Your consultant gives you an indicative schedule at the start and keeps you updated at each stage.
Cost depends on the authority, licence type, number of visas and office option you choose. We prepare a written, itemised quotation for your specific case rather than publishing a headline figure that may not apply to you.
