UAE Tax Rates at a Glance
The UAE remains one of the most tax-friendly business jurisdictions in the world, but the rules now require active compliance — not just a license renewal.
- VAT — 5% on most goods and services. Registration is mandatory once your 12-month taxable revenue exceeds AED 375,000.
- Corporate Tax — 9% on net profits above AED 375,000. The first AED 375,000 is taxed at 0%.
- Small Business Relief — 0% effective tax for revenue under AED 3M (available through end of FY2026).
- Qualifying Free Zone Person (QFZP) — 0% on qualifying income for eligible Free Zone companies that meet substance & activity tests.
- Personal income tax — still 0%. There is no PIT or capital gains tax for individuals.

Accounting & Tax FAQ
When do I have to register for VAT?
Registration is mandatory within 30 days of crossing AED 375,000 in 12-month taxable turnover. Voluntary registration is allowed above AED 187,500. Penalties for late registration are AED 10,000.
When does Corporate Tax apply to my company?
It applies to every UAE company for financial years starting on or after 1 June 2023. You must register within 3 months of incorporation (existing companies have a phased deadline depending on license issue month).
My company is in a Free Zone — do I still pay Corporate Tax?
You register either way. If you meet the Qualifying Free Zone Person tests (qualifying activity, adequate substance, audited accounts, transfer pricing compliance), qualifying income stays at 0%. Non-qualifying income is taxed at 9%. We do the QFZP assessment.
Do I need an audit?
Audited financial statements are mandatory for QFZP claims, most Free Zone license renewals (DMCC, DIFC, ADGM, JAFZA) and for revenue above AED 50M. We prepare audit-ready accounts and liaise with auditor.
