VAT rate

Qatar and Kuwait have not introduced VAT yet. To get the VAT inside a total, divide by (1 + rate) — e.g. 105 ÷ 1.05 = 100 in the UAE.

How it works

UAE 5% (since 2018), Oman 5% (2021), Bahrain 10% (2022) and Saudi Arabia 15% (since July 2020). Qatar and Kuwait have not introduced VAT.

To find the net amount inside a total, divide by (1 + rate). For example, AED 1,050 ÷ 1.05 = AED 1,000, so the VAT is AED 50.

How do I calculate 5% VAT in the UAE?

Multiply the net price by 0.05 to get the VAT, or by 1.05 to get the total including VAT.

How do I remove 15% VAT in Saudi Arabia?

Divide the VAT-inclusive total by 1.15. The difference between the two figures is the VAT.
