If your business imports, produces, or stocks goods like tobacco, soft drinks, energy drinks, or electronic smoking devices in the UAE, you are legally required to register for Excise Tax with the Federal Tax Authority (FTA). AM Audit offers expert support to ensure your business is fully compliant, registered efficiently, and ready to manage excise tax obligations without delays or penalties.
Excise Tax Registration is the process of enrolling your business with the FTA to report, pay, and manage excise tax on applicable goods. It is mandatory for:
Producers and manufacturers of excise goods
Importers of excise products
Warehouse keepers handling excise goods
Stockpilers holding excess quantities for retail or distribution
Once registered, you will be issued a Tax Registration Number (TRN) for Excise Tax purposes. This registration ensures that your business is accountable to the FTA for declaring and paying excise tax due on the movement, import, and sale of taxable goods.
Failure to register may result in severe administrative penalties, including fines, product seizures, and trading restrictions.
You must register for Excise Tax if your business deals with any of the following excise goods:
Carbonated or sweetened drinks: including flavored water, soda, and sugary beverages
Energy drinks: products with stimulant ingredients (caffeine, taurine, etc.)
Tobacco products: cigarettes, cigars, shisha, and other tobacco derivatives
Electronic smoking devices: including e-cigarettes, vaping devices, and nicotine liquids
Even if you are not VAT registered, Excise Tax registration is still mandatory if your business handles these products. The excise tax rates vary between 50% to 100% depending on the product type.
To register with the FTA, you’ll typically need:
Valid trade license(s) of the business
Passport copy and Emirates ID of the owner/manager
Details of business activities and legal structure
Proof of authority (e.g., Power of Attorney or official authorization letter)
Customs code and importer/exporter registration (if applicable)
Bank account details for tax payments and refunds
Information about excise goods: product categories, expected volume, supplier/import sources
The FTA may request additional supporting documents or clarifications based on your business type.
Our excise tax specialists will:
Evaluate your business model and determine registration eligibility
Prepare and organize all mandatory documentation
Create and manage your FTA portal account
Submit the application and monitor status updates
Respond to FTA requests and ensure compliance throughout the process
Guide you on post-registration reporting and filing obligations

Once your business is registered for excise tax, each taxable product must be individually registered through the FTA’s Excise Goods Registration system. This ensures that:
Each product receives a unique identifier and digital tax stamp/barcode
Customs authorities can track excise goods at entry/exit points
Your company can legally import, produce, or stock these products
AM Audit offers full product registration and barcode management services as part of our excise tax compliance package.
