Questions

Straight answers, before you ask.

Ask a question
How much checking does each supplier need?

The Supplier Verification Form must be completed before deducting input VAT. The depth of the check follows volume: above AED 100,000 in supplies (last 12 months, or the next expected 12 months) a full verification applies; above AED 375,000 a UAE bank letter is preferred and reliable public sources should be reviewed; a single supply under AED 10,000 may not need a full check while total dealings stay within AED 100,000. Try the quick check above, then confirm your case with Wedad.

When does the new requirement start?

According to the guide, FTA Decision No. 13 of 2026 is effective from 1 October 2026: the Supplier Verification Form must be completed before deducting input VAT.

What should be kept on a supplier’s file?

The trade licence, tax registration certificate, the authorised representative’s ID, business address and contact details, contracts or invoices — and a bank letter for large suppliers. Any red flag must be explained in writing and kept on file.

Can you help if the FTA has already raised a query or a penalty?

Yes. Dispute resolution and representation are part of our VAT, corporate tax and excise services. Share the notice and your documents, and we will review the position and set out the next step.

Who do you work with?

Businesses of every size — from multinational corporations to individual taxpayers — across the UAE, as well as overseas companies with operations in China, Korea, Syria and Italy.

Do you work in Arabic and English?

Yes. Guidance, documents and meetings are available in both languages.
