FTA VAT 201 return software for the UAE
The VAT 201 built box by box from your own posted invoices and supplier bills, not typed into a template at the end of the quarter. Open any box and drill into the documents behind it.
Qaflo is ERP software for UAE contractors: quotations, purchasing, stock, job costing, invoicing, the VAT return and payroll, in one system.
Derived from the ledger, so it ties out
The VAT 201 is a report over your posted documents rather than a form somebody fills in. Output VAT comes from tax invoices, credit notes and debit notes; input VAT comes from supplier bills. If a number looks wrong you open the box and see the documents that made it, which is a conversation with your auditor that takes minutes instead of a week.
- Output and input VAT at 5%, from documents that already posted to the general ledger
- Credit and debit notes handled throughout, not bolted on
- Date-ranged and drillable, straight through to the source document
- Export to Excel, CSV or PDF
Tax invoices with your TRN, rendered while you wait
A UAE tax invoice has to carry your TRN and show the tax, and Qaflo renders it server-side fast enough that nobody waits for it. Credit notes, debit notes and supplier bills run the same path, so what the VAT return reads is what the customer received.
- TRN on the document, with VAT shown on the line rather than added at the bottom
- Credit and debit notes on the same rendering path
- Supplier bills posting input VAT with payment allocated against open items
- Post-dated cheques, retention and customer advances tracked properly
What it is not
It is not an e-invoicing submission. Qaflo is not an accredited service provider and transmits nothing to the FTA on your behalf. Under the phased mandate you appoint an ASP and file through it — from 1 January 2027 at or above AED 50m turnover, 1 July 2027 below it — and Qaflo is where the invoice is raised, not the pipe it travels down. The return is prepared here and filed by you. Check every box against your source records first: derived is not the same as audited.
Where this lives in the platform
One database underneath all of it, so what you enter here is what everyone else reads.
Reporting
Reports over your own ledger and your own pipeline, each date-ranged, drillable to the document it came from, and exportable to Excel, CSV or PDF — including the FTA VAT 201 return, box by box.
Finance & VAT
A real double-entry ledger underneath, not a spreadsheet with totals. Invoices, receipts, supplier bills and payments post to the general ledger as they happen, so the VAT return comes out of that ledger instead of out of a spreadsheet at the end of the quarter.
