All businesses in the UAE must:
Register for corporate tax.

register for corporate tax.
Keep accurate accounting records.
- The UAE corporate tax law states that you keep accurate accounting records.
- Your tax obligations depends on what your accounting records say about your business.
- Our team of experts will help you with your bookkeeping and accounting to ensure
that your reports are compliant with the law.
File a corporate tax submission with
the Federal Tax Authority (FTA).
- This step needs to be done after the end of the first taxable period.
- Even if you qualify for an exemption you still have to submit with the FTA.

its regulations, including those
specified in the corporate tax
legislation, they may qualify for
an exemption.
If a free zone does not comply
with free zone conditions
included in the tax legislation
they may lose their exemption.
If a business loses their free
zone exemption, they may still
qualify for other options
available such as the small
businesses relief rule.
NOTE: Even free zone businesses qualifying
for an exemption still need to register for
corporate tax, keep accurate accounting records,
and file an annual tax submission with FTA
