Overview Of UAE Tax

In January 2022, the UAE government announced the introduction of a federal corporate tax. The standard corporate tax rate will be 9% for businesses that have a net annual profit of or over AED 375,000 and a rate of 0% for businesses with net annual profits under AED 375,000. The announcement included a corporate tax rate of 15% for multinational companies with profits over 750 million Euros a year, which is in line with the Global minimum corporate tax rate agreement.
Freezone businesses can get exempt from corporate tax as long as they do not do business with the UAE mainland and follow other UAE guidelines. The country aims to commence the implementation of the corporate tax regimen starting 01 June 2023. Mainland companies also have to pay a percentage of their revenue to a local company, depending on the areas they are in. There are also sin taxes on alcohol, energy drinks, vapes, and cigarettes in the UAE.
