POS and ERP software across the GCC: what changes country to country

VAT rates, languages and invoices in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait.

· 1 min read

Businesses across the Gulf share a lot — Arabic and English customers, cash and card, fast-moving retail — but tax rules differ.

  • UAE — 5% VAT, VAT 201 return by emirate.
  • Saudi Arabia — 15% VAT and ZATCA e-invoicing rules.
  • Oman — 5% VAT.
  • Bahrain — 10% VAT.
  • Qatar and Kuwait — no VAT at the time of writing.

Check current rules with a tax adviser in your country. Choose software where you set the VAT rate yourself and invoices are bilingual.
