There are still a lot of questions and clarifications pending but one thing is certain: VAT will be applied come 1 January 2018. Registrations have already begun and while a large chunk of the legislation and guidelines are available online, there are still a lot of questions.
In this session, TiE Dubai will have some specialists present the updated VAT law and explain its various segments and what it means for small business owners/start-ups and how they need to prepare for it. There will be two segments: presentations from an accountant and a corporate lawyer on the implications of VAT for your business and a panel discussion to address as many of your questions as possible. So do register and share your one question you would like our speakers to answer.
