UAE Tax Invoice Format: Everything You Need to Know in 2025
In 2025, UAE businesses must follow the official UAE Tax Invoice Format to stay compliant with the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) regulations. Properly formatted invoices—especially for VAT‑registered firms—are crucial for audit readiness, client trust, and valid tax records.
A tax invoice must include:
-
Company and customer names, addresses, and TRNs
-
Unique invoice number & date
-
Itemized totals (excluding VAT), VAT amount (5%), and total including VAT
-
Payment terms, bank details, and T&Cs
Invoices over AED 10,000 require full format; smaller ones can be simplified. CLICK HERE to view official FTA guidelines.
New corporate tax laws add urgency. From January 1, 2025, the UAE introduced:
-
9% corporate tax on profits over AED 375,000
-
A 15% Domestic Minimum Top-Up Tax (DMTT) for global multinationals with €750 million+ revenue reddit.com+10wizer.pro+10corporatetaxation.ae+10reddit.com+1reddit.com+1middleeastbriefing.com+4reuters.com+4financemiddleeast.com+4reuters.com+15khaleejtimes.com+15wizer.pro+15
