Shop-floor control in Sharjah
Sharjah workshops charge VAT at 5% like the rest of the UAE, and corporate tax at 9% applies to taxable profits, which makes knowing the true margin per job useful. E-invoicing begins on 1 January 2027 for revenue of AED 50 million or more and on 1 July 2027 for others, so even smaller workshops will issue structured invoices through an accredited provider. Plants in SAIF Zone and Hamriyah Free Zone keep their own licence records, and the system can hold each licensed entity separately. Buyers who ask about ICV certification can be answered from real job data.
