- The appellant argued for VAT exemption due to Saudi Arabia not implementing VAT, but it was established that Saudi Arabia does apply VAT.
- The court ruled that the appellant is not eligible for VAT exemption under Article 75 of the Unified VAT Agreement for GCC countries.
- The court found that the appellant’s activities fell within the scope of the UAE’s VAT law, so the exemption under Article 75 does not apply.
- The court’s finding can be analyzed in three considerations, including Article 75
- Exemption for Non-implementing GCC Countries.
