Corporate tax registration in the UAE
Every UAE company, including free zone companies, must register for corporate tax with the Federal Tax Authority. We prepare your application on EmaraTax and obtain your corporate tax registration number (TRN) quickly and correctly.
Who needs to register?
Under Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022, juridical persons incorporated in the UAE, including free zone companies, are taxable persons and must register for corporate tax. Certain individuals carrying on business in the UAE may also need to register once their turnover exceeds the threshold set by the law.
Registration deadlines depend on when your licence was issued. Missing the deadline can lead to an AED 10,000 administrative penalty, so we recommend registering as soon as your company is set up.
