Corporate Tax

As of June 1, 2023, a new corporate tax has been introduced in the UAE, levied on companies' net profits. This change has brought additional responsibilities for many business owners that must be understood and complied with. The Make Fortune team offers a full range of services for UAE corporate tax registration and filing of corporate tax returns. We help you navigate the new requirements, ensuring all necessary procedures are completed correctly and on time to stay compliant with UAE tax regulations.

 

Key highlights of the new corporate tax in the UAE:

Taxable Base

Who is Subject to the New Corporate Tax?
Legal entities registered in the UAE. Foreign companies effectively managed from within the UAE. Individuals conducting business activities in the UAE.
Corporate Tax Rates
0% for taxable income not exceeding AED. 375,000 9% for income exceeding this threshold.
What Income Is Exempt from Taxation?
Dividends and other forms of profit distribution. Income earned by non-residents from the operation of passenger ships and aircraft. Participation income, income from foreign permanent establishments, and certain other categories—provided specific conditions are met.
Are Free Zone Companies Subject to Corporate Tax?
Companies registered in UAE free zones may be exempt from corporate tax if they qualify as a “Qualifying Free Zone Person.”

Value Added Tax (VAT) in the UAE

In the UAE, VAT applies to a broad range of goods and services. Proper VAT accounting requires an understanding of which transactions are taxable and the differences between the standard rate, zero rate, and exempt supplies.

What Is Subject to VAT?

Rental and sale of commercial property. Sale of goods within the mainland UAE. Services provided within the UAE. Import of goods into the UAE

VAT Rules for Free Zones

In designated UAE free zones, transactions may be exempt from VAT if goods or services remain within the zone. However, VAT is applied when goods are moved to the mainland, consumed within the zone, or modified.

AT Registration for Exporters

Exporting companies in the UAE must register for VAT if their turnover exceeds AED 375,000—even if all their supplies are zero-rated.

Who Must Register for VAT in the UAE?

Companies and individuals conducting business in the UAE with an annual turnover exceeding AED 375,000. Voluntary registration is allowed for those with turnover or expenses exceeding AED 187,500

VAT Registration for Free Zones

In standard free zones, companies are subject to the same VAT registration rules as mainland businesses, and must register if their turnover exceeds AED 375,000.

Penalties

Companies that fail to register for VAT within the required timeframe are subject to a fine of AED 20,000 for late registration. Additional penalties may apply for delays in filing VAT returns or making tax payments.
