About Public Revenue Division:
The General Revenue Division is responsible for everything related to revenues at the Government of Dubai such as: preparing predictions of future revenue, following up the actual revenue collections, working on developing it through a feasibility study of fees, fines and current taxes, or creating new resources for regulatory development of government services provided to customers in what is the best interest of the public. In addition, it provides financial advice and other related financial issues that affect the Emirate.
The Division has structurally been placed under the Central Accounts Sector in 2012 because of its close relation to the accounting operations when it comes to ensuring the effectiveness of proper public revenues collection and documentation. Thus, it provides the necessary liquidity to finance government spending, both capital and operating expenses for the current projects.
