Expert FTA Tax Agents Helping You Navigate the 9% Federal Corporate Tax Landscape.
Understanding Federal Corporate Tax in the UAE
Effective from June 1, 2023, the UAE introduced a 9% Federal Corporate Tax on business profits exceeding AED 375,000. This milestone change means that almost every taxable person—including Free Zone entities and Mainland companies—must now register with the Federal Tax Authority (FTA).
At Legal DXB (Professional Connections Consultancy), we provide more than just filing services. We offer Strategic Tax Planning to ensure your business structure is optimized to benefit from Small Business Relief, Free Zone exemptions, and Group Tax provisions.
End-to-End Corporate Tax Solutions
Impact Assessment & Advice
Not all businesses are taxed equally. We conduct a full Impact Assessment to determine your taxable income, identify Qualifying Income for Free Zone entities, and advise on Transfer Pricing documentation to ensure intra-group transactions meet the "Arm’s Length" principle.
FTA Registration (Emaratax)
Registration is mandatory even for businesses that fall below the 9% threshold. We manage your Corporate Tax Registration via the Emaratax portal, ensuring you obtain your Tax Registration Number (TRN) within the legal deadlines to avoid Late Registration Penalties (AED 10,000+).
Tax Return Filing & Returns
Our team prepares your Annual Corporate Tax Return, ensuring all deductible expenses, capital gains, and losses are accurately reported. We help you utilize Tax Loss Relief, allowing you to offset current year profits with previous years' losses to minimize your tax liability.
Key Compliance Areas We Manage
✓ Small Business Relief (SBR): Guidance on how businesses with revenue below AED 3 million can claim relief and be treated as having "no taxable income."
✓ Free Zone Qualifying Status: Expert analysis to ensure your Free Zone company meets the "Substance Requirements" to maintain a 0% tax rate on qualifying income.
✓ Deductible Expenses: Strategic advice on interest expenditure limits and entertainment expense deductions (capped at 50% under UAE law).
