Designated Zones under UAE Value Added Tax.

Designated Zone is an area specified by a decision of the UAE Cabinet upon the recommendation of the Minister of Finance, as a Designated Zone for the purpose of the UAE VAT Law and rules made there under. Currently there are 20 designated zones in UAE.  ​

• It should be noted that the vat effect of the designated zone is only on supply of goods.  As supply of goods by a company based in designated zones to another company based in designated zones would be out of the scope of the UAE VAT. 
• Companies providing services would not have any vat effect of designated zone on their service business and would be treated like any other company in UAE.
