Maximum 20% of pavilion space allowed for commercial activity to claim tax return.
Countries and inter-government agencies will be able to claim value-added tax (VAT) refunds for the costs incurred for the developments of pavilions at Expo 2020 Dubai.
 According to a Cabinet decision posted on the Federal Tax Authority’s (FTA) website, the commercial space should be less than 20 per cent of the space to be entitled for the refund. The Expo 2020 Bureau will largely administer this process.
