⏱ Estimated time: PT4H
- Determine your tax obligation
Identify whether your business is a Taxable Person under UAE Corporate Tax. All UAE mainland companies, free zone entities (subject to QFZP test), and branches of foreign companies fall in scope. Personal income from employment, dividends, and personal investments is excluded. - Register on EmaraTax portal
Log in to EmaraTax with UAE Pass or registered credentials, select Register for Corporate Tax, complete entity information, and upload trade license, Memorandum of Association, and financial statements. Late registration triggers an AED 10,000 administrative penalty. - Determine your tax period and filing deadline
Your tax period normally aligns with your financial year. The corporate tax return is due nine months after the end of the financial year. A 31 December year-end means the return is due 30 September of the following year. Payment is due on the same date. - Compute taxable income
Start with accounting profit per IFRS or GAAP, apply UAE-specific adjustments (non-deductible expenses, exempt income, Pillar Two top-ups, transfer pricing adjustments, related-party loan interest limits). Apply the rate: 0% on the first AED 375,000, 9% on amounts above. - Evaluate Small Business Relief
If revenue is AED 3 million or less for the period, you may elect Small Business Relief, treating taxable income as zero. Election is made through EmaraTax at filing. SBR is unavailable to QFZPs and members of MNE groups (consolidated revenue above AED 3.15 billion). - Test QFZP eligibility (free zone entities)
A Qualifying Free Zone Person must meet five conditions: adequate substance in the UAE, qualifying income, de minimis non-qualifying income, no election to mainland tax, and arm-length pricing. QFZP receives 0% on qualifying income, 9% on the rest. Failing any condition disqualifies for the current and next four periods. - File the return and retain records
Submit the corporate tax return through EmaraTax with supporting workings, transfer pricing documentation if applicable, and Pillar Two GIR if in scope. Retain all records for at least seven years. The FTA may audit any tax position retroactively within the statute of limitations.
