Regulatory Non-Affiliation Notice

Regulatory Non-Affiliation Notice

Univia Tax is an independent software product. It carries no status, licence, or standing granted by any UAE government authority.

1. What Univia Tax is not

Univia Tax, and Univia Global Consultancy as its operator, expressly state that Univia Tax:

1. Holds no accreditation from the Federal Tax Authority. It does not appear on the FTA's Tax Accounting Software Register (TASR) and makes no claim to any status under the FTA's voluntary Tax Accounting Software accreditation scheme.

2. Is not a Tax Agent. Neither Univia Tax nor Univia Global Consultancy acts as a registered Tax Agent for any user of the Service, and no use of the Service creates a Tax Agent relationship.

3. Is not an Accredited Service Provider (ASP) for UAE e-invoicing, and is not a Peppol Access Point. The e-invoicing functionality in the Service today is validation and sandbox tooling only; no document is transmitted to any government system through the Service. Where transmission features are later enabled, transmission is performed by the accredited ASP that the customer appoints and contracts with, and Univia acts as a technical interface to that ASP (Terms clause 19.3).

4. Does not hold any government endorsement, certification, approval, or licence in respect of the Service from the Federal Tax Authority, the Ministry of Finance, or any other UAE federal or emirate-level authority.

5. Does not submit anything to the Federal Tax Authority. The Service does not file returns, does not register taxpayers, does not make payments, and has no connection to EmaraTax or any other government portal.

2. What Univia Tax is

Univia Tax is a compliance, computation, and business-records tool. It helps a business organise its records, computes VAT and Corporate Tax figures from those records with the working shown and the underlying law cited, and produces working papers that the business and its advisors use to prepare a filing themselves.

Every computed output in the Service carries the standing notice:

This does not constitute tax advice. Review with a qualified tax professional before filing with the FTA.

3. Mentions of UAE law and authorities

The Service cites UAE tax legislation — including Federal Decree-Law No. 8 of 2017 (VAT) and Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022 (Corporate Tax) — and refers to the Federal Tax Authority as the authority to which the user files. These references describe the subject matter the Service assists with. They are not, and must not be read as, a claim of authority, affiliation, or endorsement.

4. If this changes

Should Univia Global Consultancy obtain any formal accreditation or registration in the future, this notice will be amended and the specific status, its register entry, its scope, and its expiry date will be stated precisely. Until then, this notice governs.
