Corporate Tax
UAE Corporate Tax applies to most businesses, including free zone companies, and every taxable person must register and file an annual return, even where no tax ends up payable. Reliefs and exemptions are valuable but come with conditions.
We handle registration and filing, prepare your tax computation from your accounts, and check whether reliefs such as Small Business Relief or the Qualifying Free Zone Person regime apply to you.
