Categories of Taxation in the UAE

The UAE has a clear and structured taxation system, which includes the following categories:

Corporate Tax

Since June 2023, a 9% corporate tax applies to companies earning more than AED 375,000 annually. Companies below this threshold still benefit from a 0% corporate tax rate. Foreign oil and gas companies are taxed at 55%, while foreign bank branches are taxed at 20%.
Dividends, capital gains, and intercompany transactions are tax-free.

Value-Added Tax (VAT)

The VAT rate in the UAE is set at 5%, with businesses required to file VAT returns quarterly within 28 days of the tax period. Certain goods and services may have specific rules regarding VAT, making it crucial to have expert VAT accounting services to ensure compliance.

Excise Tax

Excise tax applies to goods that are harmful to health or the environment, such as sugary drinks, tobacco, and energy drinks. The tax rates vary, with 50% applied to sugary drinks and up to 100% for tobacco and electronic smoking devices. Companies dealing with excise goods must register with the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) and file returns quarterly.

Import and Export Tax

Import tax is charged at 5% of the total value (cost, freight, and insurance) of imported goods. Goods from the Greater Arab Free Trade Area are generally tax-free, and exports to Free Zones are exempt from tax until they are sold in the local market.
