One retail stack for the UAE
Every emirate shares the federal tax rules: VAT at 5% and corporate tax at 9%. E-invoicing starts in 2027, with the date depending on whether revenue reaches AED 50 million. What differs between emirates is your group's structure: licences, free-zone entities and warehouses. The system keeps each company's books, VAT and invoice data separate, while sharing items and reports. The weekend is Saturday and Sunday, and Symake's working day in India overlaps most of yours.
