If your business details have changed after VAT registration, it’s essential to update your VAT profile with the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) to avoid fines, miscommunication, or compliance issues. At IQFA Chartered Accountants, we offer expert VAT amendments, registration, filing, and advisory services across Dubai and the UAE.

What Are VAT Amendments?

VAT amendments involve updating your VAT registration when there are changes in business details affecting your tax records. The FTA mandates that certain amendments be reported within 20 business days to remain compliant with VAT declaration UAE laws.

Common Amendments Include:

  • Change in trade license, business name, or legal structure
  • Change in business address, branches, or contact details
  • Updates to bank account, Emirates ID, passport, or authorized signatory
  • Customs registration changes or VAT group registration modifications
