Corporate Tax Services in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah & UAE

The Ministry of Finance (‘MOF’) of the United Arab Emirates (‘UAE’) announced on 31 January 2022 that the UAE will introduce Federal Corporate Tax (‘UAE CT’) (applicable across all Emirates) on accounting net profits (after certain adjustments) that will be effective for financial years starting on or after 1 June 2023. UAE CT is planned to be introduced as most competitive in the world and is also the lowest amongst the other GCC countries. This is only an initial introduction to the proposed UAE CT law while the UAE CT legislation is being finalised. Details about the proposed UAE CT regime are set out in the press release and the Frequently Asked Questions (‘FAQs’) published on the website of MOF and Federal Tax Authority (‘FTA’).
