What is the Digital Tax in UAE?
The UAE adopted the GCC’s Unified VAT Agreement, applying a Value-Added Tax (VAT) of 5% on the sale of electronic goods and services to foreign sellers.
There is no minimum threshold, meaning all foreign suppliers selling digital services and products to UAE customers must register for VAT.
Who Pays Digital Tax?
Foreign companies without a physical presence in the UAE but supplying digital services and products to UAE customers must pay digital tax. Common categories subject to digital taxation include:
- Media subscriptions (e.g., streaming music, videos, etc.)
- Mobile applications and in-app purchases
- Cloud computing services and online data storage
- Online advertising (e.g., search, display, classifieds)
- Sales of digital products like ebooks, photography, software, etc.
These foreign suppliers must register and account for VAT on services sold to UAE-based consumers under “INT 11”.
