Starting price

From AED 1,500

Government, visa and third-party fees quoted per file

Overview

UAE corporate tax applies at 9% on taxable profits above AED 375,000, and VAT registration becomes mandatory once taxable supplies pass AED 375,000 in twelve months. Free zone companies can still reach 0% on qualifying income — but only if they meet the conditions and can evidence it.

We register you for VAT and corporate tax, file the returns, review whether your free zone income qualifies, and document the position so a review does not become a negotiation.

VAT & tax consultancy: the questions that matter

Ask a consultant

A Qualifying Free Zone Person can benefit from 0% on qualifying income, provided it meets the substance, income and de-minimis conditions and does not elect to be taxed at the standard rate. We review your numbers against those conditions before anything is filed.

Registration is mandatory once taxable supplies and imports exceed AED 375,000 over twelve months, and optional above AED 187,500. Registering late attracts penalties, so it is worth checking the rolling figure each quarter.

We handle UAE-licensed entities. For foreign companies with UAE operations, we advise on the registration obligations but file under the UAE entity.
