The FTA encourages the submission of Voluntary Disclosure by taxpayers who may have violated the provision or who believe that a mistake was made. A proactive approach to failures or mistakes is necessary for avoiding a penalty. A Voluntary Disclosure should be made by a taxable person to notify the FTA of an error or omission in their tax return, tax assessment, or tax refund application.
As per Article 8 of Cabinet Decision No. 36 of 2017 on the Executive Regulation of Federal Law No. (7) of 2017 on Tax Procedures, there are situations defined in the guide under which a taxable person can file Voluntary Disclosure.
It is a matter of question, of how a business can find errors/mistakes in already filed VAT Returns. A business can go for an Audit review to understand the mistakes in already filed returns. A VAT Audit-Review by a Registered Tax Agency (approved by the Federal Tax Authority of the UAE) can help you to find all the errors/mistakes/omissions in your VAT returns
Eventually, this exercise will minimize the risk of fines and penalties in case of a Tax Assessment by the FTA. It will also ensure that you do not create VAT issues for your customers which can adversely affect your commercial relationship.
