Corporate Tax: meet UAE rules with confidence

Corporate Tax
Introduction

Corporate Tax, compliant and efficient

UAE Corporate Tax applies to financial years starting on or after 1 June 2023 and is the biggest change to the country’s tax system in decades. Taxable income above AED 375,000 is taxed at 9%, and the law covers most businesses on the mainland and in the free zones.

Free zone companies can pay 0% on qualifying income if they meet the conditions of the Qualifying Free Zone Person regime, including real economic substance in the free zone.

The law also allows UAE companies under common ownership to form a Tax Group and file one consolidated return, which cuts paperwork and can improve the group’s overall tax position.

Our Corporate Tax team makes sure you are compliant and that you claim every relief available to you.
