When a person fails to charge and account for the correct amount of output VAT or does not recover the correct amount of input tax, it is considered as an error.
It is mandatory for a person to register for VAT if the taxable supplies made or to be made is, in excess of R1 million in any consecutive twelve-month period.
The purpose of this chapter is to outline the guidance surrounding the requirement to issue a tax invoice. A tax invoice is a written paper or electronic document which records the details of a taxable supply which has been made. The issue of a valid tax invoice is important for suppliers as it may be used to dictate the date of supply, and therefore determines the tax period in which the output tax should be accounted for.
The receipt of a valid tax invoice is important for recipients of supplies as it is the primary documentary evidence used to support the recovery of VAT incurred as input tax.
Tax can be confusing. At the basic, there is Percentage Tax or Value Added Tax; VAT registered and a Non-VAT registered tax payer. In the Philippines, managing tax matters can be really complicated. Several individuals and companies even hire Consultants/Accounting Firms to manage compliance reporting.

How the businessmen should be prepared for vatAhmedTalaat127
Value added tax (VAT) is a form of indirect tax that is to be paid by the residents. It is the tax that is charged on every stage of the production till the final stage. The VAT is already implemented in UAE from January 2018 and all businesses that fulfill the specified criteria must register for VAT. The amount of VAT will be collected by the government with the help of the documents that will be maintained by the companies. However, not every business needs to be registered with VAT.
Understanding VAT returns in the UAE can be challenging for businesses new to its tax landscape, mainly since VAT was introduced in January 2018.

Under UAE VAT legislation, detailed tax invoices are to be issued by VAT-registrants for assessable goods or services supplied to other VAT-registered businesses. This is provided that the provisions surpass Dhs10,000. A detailed VAT invoice is often for merchants and wholesalers managing higher amounts of taxable supplies.
A VAT invoice in the UAE must contain this information in English/Arabic:
A unique invoice number (sequential, for identification purposes)
The date on which a tax invoice was issued, plus the date of supply (if they’re different)
Legal name, tax registration number, and address of the taxable person
Legal name, tax identification number, and address of the customer
Description, quantity, and type of sold goods or description of provided services
To unite price for goods/services goods, excluding the VAT charge
Rebates or discounts provided (not added in good/service’s unit price)

Method for calculating the profit margin
Method for calculating VAT (standard, exemption, or zero rates)

Income Tax for New Tax Return Filers- FAQs.pptxtaxguruedu
This article provides a detailed overview of income tax, including its definition, the administrative framework, return filing period, who is liable to pay tax, how to pay tax, precautions in tax payment, advance tax calculation, income tax challans, Form 26AS, exempt income, taxable income, maintaining books of account, professions, and the period for which records should be kept. It also covers topics such as revenue receipts, capital receipts, agricultural income, and relief from double taxation.
What are the new VAT administrative penaltiesAhmedTalaat127
The Federal Tax Authority (FTA) shared a public clarification on 28th April 2021 about the amendments for provisions under the Cabinet Decision No 40 of 2017 for administrative penalties. VAT penalties include administrative penalties, which mean the monetary fines imposed on a person or an entity by the FTA for breaching the provisions in the Tax Law of UAE. Penalties can easily be avoided by taking the necessary precautions for non-compliance while filing the VAT report. Businesses have more time to review their data and submit an accurate VAT filing and can benefit from up to 70% waiver for their unpaid penalties if they meet the criteria.
The method and procedure for VAT registration in UAE is rather straightforward, and to register for VAT, our VAT Experts will guide you along with the complete procedure.
In the event a taxpayer has a balance due on their income tax return and currently unable to pay. The taxpayer should file the tax return without payment. Doing this will avoid a late filing penalty. Under §6651 of the Internal Revenue Code a penalty is imposed for failure to file a tax return. This penalty is 5% of the balance due (on the return); and 5% for each additional month the tax return is not filed but not to exceed 25%. Therefore it is more important for a taxpayer with a tax return balance due to timely file than a taxpayer who is due a refund, since the taxpayer receiving a refund will not be subject to the failure to file penalty under IRC section 6651.
In conducting their business activities, a taxable person will incur expenses which are subject to VAT. This VAT can be recovered by a taxable person, subject to certain conditions being met. This ensures that VAT will not normally be a cost to such a taxable person. Where the taxable person is not able to recover the VAT incurred in respect of goods or services, the person is, in effect, treated as the end-consumer for those goods or services. The purpose of this chapter is to set out the circumstances in which taxable persons are entitled to recover input tax and the process they must follow to do so.

1. VAT Errors and ways to rectify them
When a person fails to charge and account for the correct amount of output VAT or
does not recover the correct amount of input tax, it is considered as an error. This is
applicable even if the taxpayer has overpaid or under-paid the amount to FTA.
How to correct an error in tax invoice and treatment in tax return?
If the tax amount on the invoice exceeds the correct amount, then the supplier must
include the tax amount stated on the invoice within its tax return. If the error has
been corrected by issuing a credit note, this is not applicable.
Cases wherein the amount on the invoice is on the lower side, the supplier should
account for the correct amount of tax on its tax return.
Even if the tax originally charged was high or low, the error must be corrected by the
supplier. If the tax charged is high, then a credit note must be issued and if the tax
charged is lesser than the correct amount, a tax invoice with the correction must be
issued.
For example, if a supplier charges VAT on a zero-rated supply, then a credit note for
the VAT the customer has paid must be issued to him. If VAT has not been charged on
a standard rated supply by mistake, the tax-invoice with the correct VAT amount must
be issued.
What should a recipient of tax invoice with error do?
The recipient must contact the supplier and request a credit note or an invoice, with
the correct amount of tax stated in it. For a recipient to recover input tax, a valid tax
invoice for the supply, showing the correct amount of tax charged is mandatory.
What is the recourse that should be adopted if there is an error in FTA assessment?
2. If the assessment issued by the FTA contains an error, it is considered as a tax error
and should be corrected in the same manner as an error made by the taxable person.
It is the value of the error that determines the way of correction.
The error should either be corrected in the tax return for the period in which it was
discovered, or a voluntary disclosure should be submitted.
When is Voluntary disclosure required?
a. If the error is discovered at a time when it cannot be corrected in the tax return,
then a voluntary disclosure should be submitted to FTA (for example if the taxable
person is no longer registered) or
b. If the tax value of the error is more than AED 10,000, a voluntary disclosure is
mandatory.
When the taxable person notices an error, he/ she should submit the disclosure
within 20 business days.
What is the time limit the FTA has for assessments or by when can a taxable person
disclose errors to FTA?
Errors can be corrected within a time period of 5 years. The FTA can raise an
assessment for, or a taxable person can report any error that occurred within 5 years
from the end of the tax period in which the error occurred, to the FTA.
This is not applicable in the case of tax evasion or non-registration. In these cases, the
FTA can conduct a tax assessment up to 15 years from the end of the tax period in
which the tax evasion occurred or from the date on which the taxable person should
have been registered.
