UAE Corporate Tax: Registration & Compliance

With the introduction of Corporate Tax in the UAE (effective from June 1, 2023), the business landscape has entered a new era of financial accountability and transparency. The Federal Tax Authority (FTA) now mandates all qualifying businesses to register, file, and pay corporate tax on their profits.

Compliance is no longer optional — it’s a legal and strategic necessity. Our team of UAE tax specialists helps you navigate every stage of the process — from registration and documentation to strategic tax planning — ensuring full compliance with FTA regulations while optimizing your tax efficiency and minimizing liabilities.

UAE Corporate Tax Rates

The corporate tax system in Dubai and across the UAE is designed to encourage small business growth while ensuring fair contributions from larger companies:

Taxable Profit Applicable Corporate Tax Rate
Up to AED 375,000 0% (Small Business Relief)
Above AED 375,000 9%
Certain sectors (e.g., foreign banks, oil & gas) May be subject to rates up to 20%

Additionally, multinational enterprises (MNEs) with global revenues exceeding AED 3.15 billion are subject to the OECD BEPS 2.0 framework and related provisions.
