VAT Returns and Payments - Shuraa Tax | Tax Group

VAT returns and payment is the medium to report the total amount of VAT payable or VAT receivable for the tax period to the Federal Tax Authority (FTA). The taxable person needs to submit their VAT return by the end of each tax period. There’s a certain procedure that businesses must follow while filing their VAT return. Let’s know everything about it in detail. VAT returns & payment comprises the total value of supplies and purchases made by a taxable person during the VAT period and related VAT. This highlights the taxable person’s VAT liability/ VAT refund defined as a difference between total output tax charged to a taxable person on supplies of goods and services and input tax recovered on the purchases made. If the output tax over the input tax, then the difference becomes the amount payable to the Federal Tax Authority (FTA). When this input tax amount exceeds the output tax, the excess amount is the amount refundable to the taxable person.
