In UAE, most financial services are exempt from VAT, however, the customers are required to pay VAT at the 5% rate on bank charges and some services which involve applying explicit fees, commissions, or  charges. We should report these VAT amounts on our VAT returns only if the banks issued tax invoices in the proper format.
