Construction ERP in United Arab Emirates

What is actually different about Construction in United Arab Emirates

UAE contracting runs on a January–December year rather than April–March, and on 5% VAT rather than GST — both of which Rebota handles, because the fiscal calendar is resolved per company and every document carries its own currency and rate. Rebota lays out the FTA VAT 201 figures box by box; submitting the return stays with you. Payroll covers end-of-service gratuity and the WPS salary information file (SIF) for the bank. Choosing Arabic switches the app to a right-to-left layout, but translation is partial, so a firm whose site staff work only in Arabic should check its screens during the trial.

Rebota for Construction in United Arab Emirates

Can a construction business in United Arab Emirates use Rebota?▾

For running the business, yes: AED contracts, subcontracts and vendor bills with per-document rates; January–December financial year end to end; BOQ, measurement book, RA billing and retention. For local tax filing, no — submitting the vat return on the fta portal. Most businesses in this position run operations here and file through a local tool or accountant.

What currency and financial year does it use?▾

AED on a 1 January – 31 December year. Both are handled properly: the fiscal calendar is resolved per company rather than hardcoded, and each invoice, bill and purchase order carries its own exchange rate rather than being converted at a single company-wide rate.

What specifically does not work?▾

Submitting the VAT return on the FTA portal. Full Arabic translation — the right-to-left layout works, some screens are still English. UAE payroll items beyond gratuity and WPS. These are stated here rather than discovered later; if one of them is central to how you operate, Rebota is the wrong choice today.
