- VAT zero-rating on local purchases for exporters under CREATE MORE is performance-based, requiring at least 70% export sales annually to retain the incentive.
- Certification from the Export Marketing Bureau (EMB), not IPA registration, is now the key requirement for VAT zero-rating eligibility.
- Exporters must actively monitor export performance, link costs to export activities, align suppliers, and maintain audit readiness to sustain the incentive.
- VAT zero-rating is now available to export-oriented enterprises even if they are not IPA-registered or their incentive periods have lapsed.
- Continuous compliance and annual performance validation are essential, as failure to meet requirements results in loss of VAT zero-rating for the following year.
