UAE corporate tax applies to most businesses, including many free zone companies, and registration with the Federal Tax Authority is required for in-scope taxable persons. Taxable income up to AED 375,000 is taxed at 0% and income above that at 9%. Treatment depends on your circumstances, and we review your position with you.

VAT registration is generally mandatory when your taxable supplies and imports exceed AED 375,000 over the previous 12 months or are expected to in the next 30 days, and voluntary registration is possible from AED 187,500. Always confirm the current rules with the Federal Tax Authority.

A corporate tax return is generally due within nine months of the end of the relevant tax period. We help you prepare your records and return ahead of the deadline.

VAT returns are filed for the tax periods assigned to your registration, commonly quarterly or monthly, and the Federal Tax Authority sets the due dates. We help you prepare each return and keep track of your filing periods.

Keep invoices, contracts, bank statements, financial statements and supporting documents that show your income, expenses and tax position. Required retention periods are set by the Federal Tax Authority and can be several years, so we help you keep records organised and accessible.

Tax in the UAE

Corporate Tax and VAT in the UAE: The Basics

The UAE applies corporate tax to business profits for financial years starting on or after 1 June 2023, and VAT to most goods and services. Whether and how each applies to your business depends on your activity, income and structure.

As a general guide, taxable income up to AED 375,000 is taxed at 0% and income above that at 9%, and some qualifying free zone income may be treated differently if conditions are met. VAT is charged at 5%. Registration thresholds, deadlines and conditions are set by the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) and can change, so always confirm current rules at tax.gov.ae.
