Corporate tax return filing is a mandatory legal requirement by the UAE Federal Tax Authority (FTA). All taxable persons must submit
their corporate tax return within the stipulated time to avoid penalties and administrative fines.
A Corporate Tax Return is a financial report filed by a taxable person, detailing income, expenses, and the tax liability for a specific
tax period, as per UAE Corporate Tax Law.
The Corporate Tax Law, introduced in January 2022, officially took effect on 1 June 2023. It imposes a 9% tax rate on taxable income
exceeding AED 375,000, with a 0% tax rate on income below this threshold.
If additional documentation or clarification is requested by the FTA, it must be provided promptly by the taxable person.
Register your company for Corporate Tax through the EmaraTax portal by submitting the required documents to
the FTA.
Maintain proper books of accounts, financial records, and all tax-relevant documentation as per UAE Corporate Tax
laws.
Calculate taxable income, consider exemptions and deductions, and prepare the return based on records.
Submit the completed tax return through EmaraTax before the due date.
Settle your tax liability on or before the deadline to avoid fines.
If audited, the taxable person must provide any requested documentation or clarification.
