The Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022 on the Taxation of Corporations and Businesses (hereinafter referred to as the “Corporate Tax Law”) was issued by His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the United Arab Emirates (“UAE President”), on 3 October 2022. The Corporate Tax Law provides the legislative basis for the introduction and implementation of a Federal Corporate Tax (“Corporate Tax”) in the UAE and is effective for financial years starting on or after June 2023.
The Federal Corporate Tax Law, established under Federal Decree-Law No. (47) of 2022, applies to all corporate entities and business activities across the UAE, encompassing both mainland businesses and free zones. This new tax regime introduces a competitive 9% rate on non-qualifying income, aiming to strengthen the UAE’s fiscal framework while preserving its business-friendly appeal. JV Thomson Chartered Accountants, with its team of expert corporate tax consultants in Dubai, is well-equipped to provide businesses with tailored tax solutions designed to ensure compliance and optimize tax efficiency.
Businesses operating in the UAE must file their corporate tax returns electronically within nine months from the end of their financial year. The introduction of Corporate Tax (CT) does not require advance tax payments. Additionally, UAE group companies can opt to file a single consolidated return, simplifying the compliance process.
