Frequently Asked Questions

The UAE CT rate is 9% on taxable income above AED 375,000. Taxable income up to AED 375,000 is taxed at 0%. All UAE businesses (mainland and free zone) must register. Qualifying Free Zone Persons may benefit from a 0% rate on qualifying income if they meet specific conditions.

A Qualifying Free Zone Person (QFZP) is a free zone entity that meets specific conditions including maintaining adequate substance in the free zone, deriving qualifying income, not electing for standard CT, and complying with transfer pricing rules. QFZPs pay 0% CT on qualifying income and 9% on non-qualifying income.

Small Business Relief allows eligible businesses with revenue not exceeding AED 3 million in the relevant and all prior tax periods to elect to be treated as having no taxable income for that period. This is a significant relief for SMEs. Profitrack can advise whether your business qualifies and help you make the election correctly.

Legal CT reduction strategies include: optimising your business structure (mainland vs free zone), maximising allowable deductions (salaries, rent, depreciation, interest), identifying exempt income streams, utilising tax losses, taking advantage of Small Business Relief if eligible, and ensuring related-party transactions are properly structured. Profitrack's advisory team maps out all available options for your specific situation.
