Dynamics 365 Business Central and UAE VAT

Getting VAT right in the UAE is non-negotiable — and doing it manually is slow and risky. Dynamics 365 Business Central, configured correctly, calculates input and output VAT automatically, handles AED and multi-currency, and produces the figures you need for your Federal Tax Authority (FTA) VAT return. PraviMinds sets it up so compliance is built into everyday transactions.

Beyond VAT

UAE Corporate Tax and what is coming next

UAE VAT was just the beginning. With UAE Corporate Tax now in effect and e-invoicing developments across the GCC, businesses need finance systems that can adapt to changing compliance — not spreadsheets that can’t.

Business Central gives you a compliant, future-ready foundation: structured financials, audit-ready records, and the flexibility to adjust as requirements evolve. We help you configure it not just for today’s VAT, but for the compliance landscape ahead.
