VAT registration is fundamentally essential for every company.

Standard Rate: 17.5%, Reduced Rate: 5%, Zero Rated: 0% and Exempt. Standard VAT is generally applicable on most of the goods and services in the market. Reduced rates are applicable mainly on car seats for kids, petrol, diesel, power, sanitary products for women etc. Some of the zero rated goods are food, clothing, children’s books, promotional activities for charities, ship repair etc. It is mandatory to produce VAT invoices to the Customs and Revenue Department for any kind of goods or services sold or bought at a certain price.
