Excise Tax Registration in UAE
To register with the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) as an excise taxpayer, you need to register your business if you import, manufacture, and store excisable goods. This means your business must charge, collect, and remit excise tax as per the UAE laws. Excise tax applies only to specific goods, which is why registration must be done accurately. At Tax Consultant UAE, we help businesses in the UAE with tax excise registration, helping them on their way to full compliance and smooth approval from the FTA.
Who Must Register for Excise Tax in the UAE?
Businesses that need to register for excise tax UAE include:
- Importers of excisable goods – companies importing e-vapor products, sweetened foods, energy drinks, or tobacco into the UAE.
- Producers of excisable goods – local manufacturers who make excise products in the UAE.
- Stockpilers of excise goods – businesses holding excise goods in large quantities upon which excise tax has not been paid.
- Warehouse keepers – persons operating specified areas where excise goods are stored.
If your business falls under any of the above categories, excise tax registration is mandatory. Trading without registration exposes you to administrative penalties and fines.
