In a step to facilitate paying due tax, the FTA is introducing a new method of paying due tax as follows:
- A GIBAN is a unique IBAN number that is given to every taxable person
- A taxable person can make a fund transfer from certain UAE financial institutions using the GIBAN provided by the FTA
- This payment method can be used for settling any outstanding VAT and Excise Tax amounts payable, including tax and penalties
- This option should not be used for other payments such as Miscellaneous Payments
