UAE VAT Compliance Services

Value Added Tax is a consumption tax levied at each stage of the supply chain and ultimately borne by the end consumer.

With effect from January 1. 2018 VAT was introduced in UAE.

VAT is a transaction-based indirect tax that is levied at each step of the supply chain. End consumers generally bear the VAT cost while registered businesses collect and account for the tax, acting as a tax collector on behalf of the Federal Tax Authority.

VAT is used in more than 180 countries around the world. All OECD countries except for the US have VAT (or a variation). While it feels the same as a general sales tax to end-consumers, VAT is a more sophisticated tax and overcomes many challenges that affect the general sales tax.

It is essential to understand that most e-commerce platforms (also called market place) may provide warehousing, order collection, and delivery.

Hence, each online seller conducts his business in his principle capacity and is liable to assess himself for VAT compliance requirements and adhere to such compliance.

So what are the compliance requirements for such Non-resident sellers and Resident sellers?

INDIA GST Compliance Services

GST is known as the Goods and Services Tax. It is an indirect tax that has replaced many indirect taxes in India, such as the excise duty, VAT, services tax, etc. The Goods and Service Tax Act was passed in Parliament on 29th March 2017 and came into effect on 1st July 2017.

In other words, Goods and Service Tax (GST) is levied on the supply of goods and services. Goods and Services Tax Law in India is a comprehensive, multi-stage, destination-based tax levied on every value addition. GST is a single domestic indirect tax law for the entire country.

Like a normal retail shop or wholesale business, an online seller is also mandated by the GST regulations to register and comply with GST.

Any business with a turnover of more than 20 lakhs rupees in the financial year should register for GST in India and comply with its requirements. The same applies to an online non-resident or resident seller.

We assist online sellers with all the GST needs:

  • GST Filing Services

Payment Reconciliation & Integrated
Accounts For Online Seller

One of the major challenges for any online seller on any e-commerce platform is understanding the market place’s remittance.  An online seller may see his sales growing, but the remittance may not reflect a profitable position.

This poses a big question in front of the seller, is my product really profitable? Should I continue to sell on the specific platform, or should I sell this product?

To Answer those, an online seller should do payment reconciliation.

In the payment reconciliation, you will need to identify:

  1. Timing difference: there will be some delay from market place to remit money to your account. Further, this issue is complicated when the money remitted by the market place may not be in the order of the fulfilled orders. Say you might get money for order no. 3 before you get paid for order no. 1 and 2.
  2. Deductions: there are different types of deduction that the market place deducts for the payment, namely:
    • Commission
    • Payment/closing fees
    • Shipping charges
    • Warehousing fees
    • Discount – seller offered
    • taxes, if any.
  3. Unremitted orders: Generally, it may takes 15-30 days to get the money from the market place. However, if the money is not received after 30 days, it’s time for you to get in touch with the market place. 
  4. Returns: Some time your product may not have satisfied customer expectations. They will return the product. You will see multiple line items on your statement to reflect returns. Special attention is required to capture these transactions to understand product profitability.
  5. Net profit = Net cash in hand: Net profit at SKU level need to be identified and checked. this will give you enough information to identify whether to continue or discontinue

The reconciliation should not be at the value level. Still, the description level says we have seen cases where the packing charges are misapplied, warehousing fees overcharged and discounted not offered by the seller. In some cases, orders are returned, but the product didn’t come back.

Our Payment reconciliation/ Integrated Accounts will ensure that you have total control over your market place transactions.
