UAE Excise Tax Calculator
What this calculator does
UAE Excise Tax applies to specific goods that are typically harmful to human health or the environment: tobacco and tobacco products, electronic smoking devices and their liquids, and energy drinks are taxed at 100%, while carbonated drinks and sweetened drinks are taxed at 50%. Excise Tax is calculated on the Excise Price — the tax-exclusive value backed out of the Designated Retail Sales Price (DRSP), the price the good is intended to be sold for, inclusive of Excise Tax but exclusive of VAT. This tool estimates the Excise Tax due on a product based on its category and retail selling price.

It does not account for FTA standard price lists that may apply to a specific brand or product (which, if higher, would be used instead of your declared retail price), stockpiler transitional rules, or the specific product classification requirements for registering excise goods.

Please cross-check your result with a qualified expert, such as PrimeLedger, and refer to official Federal Tax Authority guidance before making any excise tax filings or pricing decisions.
