VAT Penalty Reconsideration
Appeal an FTA decision and apply to have late-payment penalties reviewed or waived.

UAE VAT reconsideration allows a taxable person to appeal for a review of a decision made by the Federal Tax Authority. The authority will review the decision and may waive VAT late-payment penalties if the business provides proof of the reasons behind the reconsideration request.
Any person who has received a penalty can submit a reconsideration for any decision taken by the FTA. The applicant must give reasons for requesting a reconsideration, including an analysis of the alternative treatment they believe should have been applied to their case.
The FTA reviews the request and, if it satisfies the necessary requirements, issues its justified decision within 20 business days of receiving the application.
