Tax codes are set on every sales invoice, bill and order, from the UAE tax pack. The VAT return is reconciled to the ledger, so the return ties to the books.

What it covers

  • The UAE tax pack, with tax codes on every document.
  • Tax codes that depend on the company's VAT registration.
  • Each line of an invoice, bill and order carries its own tax code.
  • A VAT return reconciled to the ledger.
  • Input and output VAT posted from the documents that create them.

How it works

  1. Set the company's VAT registration, so the tax codes match it.
  2. Issue invoices and record bills, with the right tax code on each line.
  3. Prepare the VAT return for the period.
  4. Reconcile the return to the ledger before you file it.
