Tax invoice vs simplified tax invoice
A full tax invoice is needed when you supply a VAT-registered customer or when the amount exceeds AED 10,000. A simplified tax invoice, with fewer details, can be used in other cases such as retail sales to consumers.
Tips for getting paid faster
Show a clear due date and bank details, number invoices sequentially, send them as soon as work is delivered, and follow up politely a few days before the due date.
