What is EmaraTax?

To unify the tax administration and manage all tax regulations, the UAE Federal Tax Authority is about to implement a new integrated Tax platform called EmaraTax. This system mainly aims to enhance the user experience to access all the services online through simplified procedures. Users can access all the services like Registration, Return filing, Making payments, Obtaining refunds, etc. easily through this system.
Major Developments Through EmaraTax
Users can access the E-service portal using Emirates ID and UAE Pass (User Id and Password access are also available)

Bank account details can be quickly updated in the portal using the Edit option which is currently updated through the filing of an amendment application.
Reminder notifications will be sent to the user which will enable them to update their documents with FTA in time. (e.g.: expiry of Trade license, Passport/Emirates ID, etc.)
EmaraTax introduces a new and efficient user interface to the Tax portal with below mentioned added features

1. Payment Mechanism
Under the Payments option, outstanding payments including penalties with a detailed description, tax type, and the period it relates to can be viewed. Payments can be made fully or partially towards multiple liabilities. It also gives much clarity on due dates and the status of liability or penalty.
