Understanding the UAE Tax System
The UAE is known for its favorable business environment, offering competitive tax rates and benefits for investors. However, with recent tax reforms, including the introduction of VAT and Corporate Tax, businesses need to stay informed and compliant to avoid penalties.
Key Tax Changes in the UAE:
1. Corporate Tax (CT):
In 2023, the UAE introduced a federal corporate tax for the first time. This tax applies to businesses with annual profits exceeding AED 375,000. The standard tax rate is 9%, with varying rates for certain sectors.
2.Value Added Tax (VAT):
VAT at a rate of 5% was introduced in 2018. It applies to most goods and services, with certain exemptions. Businesses must register for VAT if their taxable supplies and imports exceed the set threshold by the UAE Federal Tax Authority (FTA).
3.Excise Tax:
The UAE imposes excise taxes on specific goods that are harmful to health or the environment, such as tobacco, energy drinks, and carbonated beverages.
4.Economic Substance Regulations (ESR):
The UAE introduced ESR to meet international standards. Certain business activities conducted within the UAE must demonstrate substantial economic presence, such as having adequate employees, operations, and premises.
5.Transfer Pricing (TP):
The UAE adopted transfer pricing rules that require businesses to follow OECD guidelines when transacting with related parties. Proper documentation must be maintained to ensure compliance.
