1. Introduction
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the
Yalla.Tax website, platform, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).
The Service is operated by BlinkEdge LLC (referred to as
“Yalla.Tax,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
By accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood,
and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must
not use the Service.
2. Nature of the Service & No Affiliation with FTA
Yalla.Tax is a private, AI-assisted reference and productivity tool designed to help
users discover, search, and navigate publicly available UAE tax materials, including
(but not limited to) Federal Decrees, Cabinet Decisions, guides, and other reference
content.
-
We may index or reference publicly available documents, including those originally
issued by the UAE Federal Tax Authority or other bodies.
-
We may provide AI-generated summaries, explanations, and chat responses based on
those documents and other sources.
-
We may provide search and filtering tools to help you quickly locate relevant
information.
However:
-
Yalla.Tax is not an official source of UAE tax law, tax rulings,
or administrative guidance.
-
Yalla.Tax is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by
the UAE Federal Tax Authority (FTA) or any government authority.
-
Any references to the FTA, its logos, documents, or websites are for identification
and informational purposes only.
In addition to reference and search functionality, Yalla.Tax may provide operational tools, including a VAT preparation module (the “VAT Module”), which allows users to input, store, and process business-related data such as company details, Tax Registration Numbers (TRN), filing periods, invoices, receipts, and related transactional records. These tools are provided for productivity and assistance purposes only and do not constitute official filing systems or direct integrations with the FTA.
The Service may also include, without limitation: (a) the ability to record sales, expenses, and other transactions through messaging channels such as WhatsApp; (b) automated capture and classification of receipts and invoices, including via optical character recognition (OCR) and AI; (c) automated classification of VAT type and usage type; (d) generation of financial statements and reports (such as profit-and-loss and balance-sheet summaries); and (e) optional managed services under which VAT returns are prepared and submitted on your behalf as described in Section 6A.
WhatsApp is a third-party service operated by Meta Platforms, Inc. and is not owned or controlled by Yalla.Tax. Your use of WhatsApp is subject to its own terms and policies, and message delivery, availability, and timing are outside our control.
3. No Tax, Legal, or Professional Advice
The Service and all content made available through it - including AI-generated
responses, summaries, search results, notifications, and document extracts - are
provided for general information and productivity purposes only.
They do not constitute:
- Tax advice
- Legal advice
- Accounting, auditing, or financial advice
- Any other form of regulated professional advice
You understand and agree that:
-
No professional-client relationship of any kind (including tax advisor, lawyer,
accountant, or consultant) is created by your use of the Service.
-
You are solely responsible for reviewing original official sources,
verifying the accuracy and completeness of any information, and seeking
independent professional advice before making decisions or taking
actions that could have legal, tax, or financial consequences.
-
If there is any conflict between information shown on Yalla.Tax and information
published by the FTA or other government authorities, the official government
source always prevails.
4. AI-Generated Content, Accuracy & Limitations
Yalla.Tax uses AI models and automated systems to generate summaries, answers,
explanations, and recommendations (“AI Content”). AI Content is
inherently probabilistic and may:
- Be incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate;
- Misinterpret legal provisions or administrative guidance;
- Omit relevant context, exceptions, or transitional rules;
- Reference documents or rules that have been amended, repealed, or superseded.
Calculations, classifications, or summaries generated within the VAT Module may be incorrect, incomplete, or misaligned with current FTA requirements
By using the Service, you explicitly acknowledge and agree that:
-
AI Content may be wrong or misleading and is not independently
verified or audited against current FTA rules in real time.
-
Yalla.Tax does not guarantee that any AI answer or document
summary is accurate, current, or suitable for your specific case.
-
You will not rely solely on AI Content for filing tax returns,
submitting objections, making tax planning decisions, or communicating with the
FTA or other authorities.
5. User Accounts & Security
To access certain features, you may need to create an account and provide
information such as your name, email address, and password.
-
You agree to provide accurate and complete information and to keep it updated.
-
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login details and
for all activities under your account.
-
You must notify us immediately at support@yalla.tax
if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.
We may offer optional security features such as email verification codes or
two-step verification. These are provided to reduce (but cannot eliminate) the risk
of unauthorized access.
6. Use of VAT Module & Business Data
The VAT Module allows users to upload, input, and manage business-related data, including but not limited to company information, TRNs, filing periods, invoices, expenses, and supporting documents (“Business Data”).
You acknowledge and agree that:
- You are solely responsible for the accuracy, completeness, and legality of all Business Data submitted;
- Yalla.Tax does not verify, audit, or validate Business Data against FTA systems;
- Any outputs, summaries, or VAT return figures generated are for assistance only and must be independently reviewed before submission;
- Yalla.Tax is not responsible for any errors, omissions, or consequences arising from the use of the VAT Module.
6A. Managed Filing Service & Authorization to Act
Yalla.Tax offers an optional paid tier (the “Managed Service”) under which we, together with independent FTA-approved registered tax agents and/or tax accountants we partner with (each a “Partner Agent”), prepare and submit VAT returns and related filings on your behalf.
Yalla.Tax is not itself a registered tax agency. Where filings are submitted on your behalf, they are performed by or under the supervision of a Partner Agent. Yalla.Tax acts as a technology provider and coordinator between you and the Partner Agent.
By subscribing to the Managed Service, you expressly:
- Authorize Yalla.Tax and the relevant Partner Agent to access your Business Data, prepare VAT returns and supporting schedules, and submit those returns and related filings to the UAE Federal Tax Authority on your behalf for the periods covered by your subscription;
- Authorize us to share your Business Data and relevant account information with the Partner Agent for the purpose of providing the Managed Service;
- Acknowledge that you may be required to grant the Partner Agent appropriate access or appointment rights through the FTA’s systems (for example, EmaraTax), and that you will provide accurate information and reasonable cooperation to enable filings;
- Confirm that you have authority to grant this authorization on behalf of the business and any related entity.
You remain responsible for:
- The accuracy, completeness, and legality of all Business Data and source documents you provide;
- Reviewing and approving any return or figures presented to you before submission, where we make such review available to you;
- Paying any VAT, corporate tax, penalties, fines, or interest due to the FTA — these are your obligation and are never assumed by Yalla.Tax or any Partner Agent;
- Meeting all filing and payment deadlines if you do not provide required information to us in good time.
You acknowledge and agree that:
- The Managed Service depends on you providing complete and accurate data on time. We are not liable for late filing, penalties, or other consequences caused by incomplete, inaccurate, or late-supplied information;
- Submission of a return does not guarantee any particular outcome, assessment, refund, or acceptance by the FTA;
- You may withdraw your authorization at any time by written notice to support@yalla.tax, but such withdrawal does not affect filings already prepared or submitted, and may result in cancellation of the Managed Service;
- The relationship, scope, and any professional duties of the Partner Agent are subject to the Partner Agent’s own engagement terms, which may be provided to you separately.
6B. Scope of Taxes & Corporate Tax Exclusion
Unless expressly stated otherwise in your specific plan at the time of purchase, the Service and all subscription pricing cover Value Added Tax (VAT) only.
UAE Corporate Tax is not included in any standard subscription or in the Managed Service. Corporate Tax services — including registration, calculation, preparation, advisory, and filing — are available as a separately priced add-on, delivered through our FTA-approved partner agents, and apply only where you have expressly subscribed to or agreed to that add-on in writing. Excise Tax, customs duties, accounting/audit services, payroll, and any other non-VAT matters are not included unless expressly agreed in writing.
Any general information about Corporate Tax, Excise, or other taxes made available through the reference, search, or AI features of the Service is provided for information only and does not constitute a service, engagement, or advice in respect of those taxes.
6C. Tax Agent & Multi-Client Users
If you use the Service as a tax agent, accountant, or other professional to manage data or filings for client companies (“Client Accounts”), you additionally represent, warrant, and agree that:
- You have obtained all necessary authority, consents, and engagement terms from each client to upload, process, and act on their data through the Service;
- You are responsible for your relationship with your clients, including your own professional obligations, fees, scope of work, and advice;
- Yalla.Tax is a tool you use in providing your services; we are not a party to your client engagements and assume no responsibility toward your clients;
- You will comply with all applicable FTA rules and professional standards governing registered tax agents;
- You will indemnify Yalla.Tax in respect of any claim brought by your clients arising from your use of the Service.
7. Acceptable Use
You agree that you will not:
- Use the Service for any unlawful, fraudulent, or harmful purpose;
- Attempt to circumvent access controls, rate limits, or security mechanisms;
- Scrape, harvest, or bulk-download the Service in a way that harms performance;
- Resell, rent, or provide the Service to third parties as if it were your own product;
-
Use the Service to generate or distribute misleading, harmful, or abusive content,
including impersonating the FTA or any government authority.
We may suspend or terminate your access if we reasonably believe you have violated
these Terms or misused the Service.
7A. Suspension, Termination & Account Cancellation
We reserve the right, at our sole discretion and without liability to you, to suspend, restrict, limit, cancel, or permanently terminate your account and access to the Service (in whole or in part), with or without prior notice, including (without limitation) where:
- You breach, or we reasonably believe you have breached, these Terms or any applicable law;
- You provide false, misleading, fraudulent, or incomplete information;
- You fail to pay fees when due, or a payment is reversed, charged back, or disputed;
- Your use poses a security, legal, reputational, or operational risk to us, our Partner Agents, other users, or third parties;
- You misuse, abuse, or attempt to manipulate the Service, the AI features, or our staff or partners;
- Continuing to provide the Service to you would, in our reasonable judgment, expose us or a Partner Agent to legal or regulatory liability;
- We are required to do so by law, regulation, or a competent authority.
Upon suspension or termination:
- Your right to access and use the Service ceases immediately;
- Where you are on the Managed Service, any authorization to file on your behalf may cease, and you remain responsible for your own filings and deadlines from that point;
- Fees already paid are non-refundable except where expressly stated or required by law;
- Any outstanding amounts owed to us become immediately due.
You may cancel your account at any time through your account settings or by contacting support@yalla.tax. Cancellation stops future renewals but does not entitle you to a refund of fees already paid for the current billing period, except where required by law. We may retain certain data after termination as described in our Privacy Policy and as required for legal, tax, and accounting purposes.
8. Subscriptions, Payments & Trials
Certain features of Yalla.Tax may be offered on a paid subscription basis, with or
without a free trial period.
-
Prices, billing cycles, and applicable taxes will be displayed at the time of
purchase. Unless stated otherwise, prices are quoted in UAE Dirhams (AED) and cover VAT-related services only (see Section 6B).
-
Payments are processed by our third-party payment processor, Stripe, and potentially other providers. By providing payment details, you also agree to Stripe’s applicable terms. Card and payment data are collected and processed directly by Stripe; we do not store your full card details on our own servers.
-
By subscribing or providing a payment method, you authorize us and our payment
processor to charge that payment method, on a recurring basis where applicable, for the subscription fees, applicable taxes, and any other amounts you incur, in accordance with the displayed plan.
-
Subscriptions automatically renew for successive periods at the then-current price unless you cancel prior to the renewal date. You are responsible for cancelling before renewal if you do not wish to be charged again.
-
If a payment fails, is declined, reversed, or charged back, we may suspend or terminate your access, retry the charge, and/or recover amounts owed, including via the payment method on file.
-
You agree not to initiate fraudulent chargebacks. Disputed charges should first be raised with us at support@yalla.tax. We reserve the right to contest improper chargebacks and recover associated costs.
-
Free trials, where offered, may convert into a paid subscription at the end of the trial unless cancelled beforehand, and may require a valid payment method to begin.
-
We may change pricing, plans, or features at any time. Price changes will not apply to the current paid period but may apply on renewal, with notice where required.
Any refund policies, if applicable, will be clearly stated in the subscription flow
or on our website. Where not explicitly provided, all payments are generally
non-refundable except as required by law.
9. Third-Party Services & Links
The Service may integrate or interact with third-party services, including (but not
limited to) payment processors (e.g., Stripe), email providers, analytics tools,
and external websites.
We do not control and are not responsible for:
- The content, policies, or practices of third-party websites or services;
- Any errors, delays, or failures originating from third-party providers.
Your use of third-party services is governed by their own terms and privacy
policies. You should review those documents independently.

respective authorities.
