CORPORATE TAX REGISTRATION

With the introduction of corporate tax in the UAE, businesses are required to comply with new regulations and register for corporate tax to ensure legal compliance. Understanding whether your business is subject to corporate tax and completing the registration process is essential for smooth operations.

Overview of Corporate Tax in the UAE

The UAE introduced corporate tax as part of its commitment to fostering a transparent and globally competitive business environment. The tax applies to net profits generated from business activities and is structured to be competitive for businesses while aligning with international standards.
Key aspects of UAE corporate tax:
Corporate Tax Rate: 0% on taxable income up to AED 375,000. 9% on taxable income exceeding AED 375,000.
Free Zone Businesses:Qualifying free zone entities that maintain compliance with the regulatory framework may continue to benefit from a 0% corporate tax rate on qualifying income, but they must still register and file returns.
Threshold: Businesses with taxable income of AED 375,000 or more are subject to corporate tax at the applicable rate. Entities below this threshold benefit from a 0% tax rate but are still required to register.
