Tax Advice & Accounting Dubai

In the course of recent years, the legal requirements for business owners in Dubai and the UAE have become considerably stricter. With the introduction of tax, it is necessary to register for tax purposes, maintain accounting records, and, where applicable, pay value-added tax or corporate tax. 

Since then, with our partner law firm, we have supported entrepreneurs of all kinds in complying with local laws through advice, registration, and ongoing support (accounting, annual financial statements, etc.).

FAQ

Here are the most frequently asked questions about tax advisory and accounting services in Dubai. 

Do I also have to register if there are no sales?

Yes, every company must be registered within 90 days, regardless of whether it is making a profit or not. 

Those who do not carry out corporate tax registration, as well as ongoing accounting and annual financial statements, must expect severe penalties, which will increase with repeated violations. 

Do all companies in the UAE have to pay taxes?

In principle, everyone must register. However, corporate taxes are only payable if turnover exceeds AED 3,000,000. Below that, one benefits from Small Business Relief. 

Every company, regardless of the country in which it is registered or established, is subject to the UAE tax laws if it is directed from the UAE.

Anyone who believes they can live in the UAE but bill through US LLCs or similar entities is committing tax evasion.
