What is the Difference Between Zero-Rated & Exempted Supplies?
VAT Applicability for Free Zones
Designated Free Zones
Transactions within these zones may be exempt from VAT. Goods and services moved between designated zones are also generally exempt. These zones typically offer 100% foreign ownership and no customs duties.
Non-Designated Free Zones
While offering similar benefits like 100% ownership, these zones do not offer the same VAT exemptions on internal transactions. Businesses here must charge and report VAT on their supplies like any mainland company.
