Client's 150,000 AED attorney fee tax obligation
The Dubai court issued a ruling requiring the client to pay 150,000 AED as value-added tax (VAT) at a rate of 5% on legal fees amounting to 3 million AED. The defendant admitted to their obligation to pay the fees but failed to make the payment. The case stems from an agreement between the client and a legal firm representing them in a claim for 30 million AED. Previously, the court ordered the client to pay the legal fees and legal interest. It then approved overlooking the issue of VAT because it pertains to taxable services and ordered the collection of the tax on the awarded fee amount.
