Excise Tax is a form of indirect taxation levied on specific goods deemed harmful to public health or the environment. In the UAE, Excise Tax is applicable to certain products such as tobacco, sugary drinks, and energy drinks. The tax is imposed at the point of importation or production and is ultimately borne by the end consumer.

Excise Tax is designed to discourage the consumption of harmful products by imposing additional costs. The tax is generally included in the price of the goods, resulting in higher retail prices for consumers. This encourages consumers to make healthier choices and reduces the demand for such products.
