Reduced rates, zero rates and exemptions
Zero-rated supplies (Article 45, VAT Law) include exports of goods and services outside the GCC implementing states, international transport of passengers and goods, investment precious metals, crude oil and natural gas, the first supply of a residential building within three years of completion, and educational and preventive or basic healthcare services of qualifying kinds. Zero-rated sales keep the right to recover input tax.
Exempt supplies (Article 46) are financial services specified in the Executive Regulation, sale or lease of residential buildings other than the zero-rated first supply, bare land, and local passenger transport. Exempt sales do not carry input-tax recovery.
Prices shown to consumers must include VAT (Article 38). Under Executive Regulation Article 27, a price may be quoted exclusive of tax for exports or where the customer is a registrant, if it is clearly labelled as exclusive. Failing to display tax-inclusive prices carries an AED 5,000 penalty.
