UAE TAX ESSENTIALS

Clear answers.
A more informed next step.

Start with the distinction between VAT registration, Corporate Tax and free-zone treatment. Each has its own requirements.

Official references checked:
01 / VAT REGISTRATION

AED 375,000

For a UAE-resident business, mandatory VAT registration generally applies when taxable supplies and imports exceed this threshold in the previous 12 months, or are expected to exceed it in the next 30 days.

Voluntary registration may be available above AED 187,500, including qualifying taxable expenses. Different rules apply to foreign businesses.

02 / CORPORATE TAX

A separate
registration.

VAT registration does not replace Corporate Tax registration. The FTA requires Taxable Persons to register for Corporate Tax and may also require certain Exempt Persons to register.

Registration obligations and the amount of tax payable are separate questions. Your business structure and circumstances matter.

Source: FTA registration FAQs ↗
03 / FREE-ZONE COMPANIES

0% is
conditional.

A free-zone licence alone does not establish eligibility for 0% Corporate Tax. The free-zone regime provides 0% on Qualifying Income for a Qualifying Free Zone Person meeting the applicable conditions.

Review qualifying activities, income and other conditions before assuming a particular treatment applies.

General information to help you identify the right questions. Tax treatment depends on your circumstances and the rules applicable to the relevant period. Refer to the official sources above and seek advice for your business.
