Introduction:-

 

Wide the GCC agreement, Bahrain, Oman, KSA, and UAE implement the Value Added Tax Regime also known as VAT. This is very similar to what India did in 2017 with the implementation of GST.

 

VAT has a typical multilayer compliance system wherein the VAT impact is passed throughout the supply chain be it services or goods. This means almost all the businesses in that country doing local / export sales also the services/goods will have to get compliant with this tax regime.
