Is it necessary to give the total horizontally? or we can design our invoice showing total vertically (Gross Amount Total, VAT Total & Net Total). I have searched all government guidelines and they have mentioned only required fields, no matter what is the design of invoice.
Just follow the guidelines and mention all the points on the invoice required by the FTA regardless the design of an invoice.

Are we allowed to raise consolidated invoices for the month, for example I usually practice raising invoices on 31st for material supplied from 1st-31st. Is this practice allowed or will I have to raise invoices weekly/bi-weekly?
You can raise a consolidated invoice by mentioning the amount of VAT and the VAT percentage collected on each material supplied.

Sir Kindly clarify these points;
1. For commercial invoice or shipping invoice, do we need to put “TAX INVOICE” ?
2. For invoicing in other currencies like US dollar is it mandatory for the invoice to be in AED? Or we proceed with USD and later part in filing for vat return just to convert it to AED?
1. Yes, you need to put ‘tax invoice’
2. Invoice must be in Dirham (AED)
Thank you
Sir,
Do we have to raised tax invoice on gross value or net value in construction company???
Gross Value -Advance -Retention=Net Value
Which amount will be charged for VAT??
Gross or net
What if I dont want to issue VAT to my client what should I do?
but your supplier will charge you VAT and you will pay it from your own pocket and it will be a loss for you as well as a risk of getting penalties and fines because you are not collecting tax from your clients on behalf of the government and it is against the Law.
Our company name was thomas&james LLC and now changed the name to T&J LLC. Our many suppliers are still raising tax invoice to us in the old name.(Thomas &James LLC) .Our trade license number,address and ownership and all other things reamianed the same.
Can we claim back the tax paid to our suppliers in the old name.(thomas&james LLC in place of T&J LLC)
Thanks

Hi,
We are working as Export company? What kind of invoice we will submit for custom purpose? Is it tax invoice?
Our selling price is less than the bill of entry but if we declare same as tax invoice, custom will request us to pay duty instead of refund?

Dear Sir,
We are a real estate company ,do we need to pay 5% as VAT from our commission collected ? or we just want to collect 5 % from the commercial property and pay to the government .

We are labour accommodation provider, providing accommodation to companies for their labour and services separately from March 2018. We understand services are taxable and obtained vat registration in June 2018 and fta provided us first vat period from 1st June 2018. Now if we want to invoice customer for the period Mar 18 to May 2018, can we put invoice dates corresponding to the period Mar 2018 – May 2018 ?
Appreciate your response
Best Regards,
Majid
Yes you can, but you should have LPO or service request for the prior period along with the delivery note which indicates the time of service delivery. (The time of service delivery must be clearly stated in the invoice.)
Let us know if you need VAT, Accounting or Audit services. We are certified by the Ministry of Economy as well as Federal Tax Authority.
