What UAE corporate tax is
Taxable income up to AED 375,000 is taxed at 0%. This protects small profits and new businesses.
Taxable income above AED 375,000 is taxed at 9%. It applies to financial years starting on or after 1 June 2023.
The Ministry of Finance sets policy; the Federal Tax Authority administers it under Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022.
A Qualifying Free Zone Person can get 0% on qualifying income, but must still register and file. We check your status and tell you where you stand.
Most UAE businesses must register
