The UAE’s Federal Tax Authority (FTA) on Wednesday said any person or group in the country has the right to apply to reduce or seek exemption from the penalty imposed for violating the country’s tax laws.

But those individuals and companies seeking reduction or exemption will have to provide a good reason which is acceptable to the FTA — as well as evidence that justifies the existence of the excuse and the violation that led to the imposition of administrative penalties.
On May 6, the UAE reduced old penalties on value-added tax and excise tax to help firms and individuals better cope with the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.
According to Cabinet Decision No. 49 of 2021, tax payers who currently have penalties pending can see those reduced by 70 per cent, provided they settle them before December 31, 2021.
Going forward, late payment penalties will be reduced to four per cent per month, a substantial reduction from one per cent per day while an overall cap stays at 300 per cent.
Under the UAE tax law, individuals and companies need to inform FTA of the request for reduction or exemption within 40 business days from the end of the acceptable excuse.
Also, the person must prove that the violation has been corrected, and the application for exemption or reduction is submitted in accordance with the form specified by the FTA.

The FTA said in a statement on Wednesday that no excuse shall be accepted if the act was deliberate. An excuse can only be deemed acceptable based on a decision made by a tripartite committee to be formed by a decision issued by the Director-General of the FTA.
This committee will issue its decision within 40 business days from the date of receiving the application. Applicants shall be notified of this decision within 10 business days.
