UAE Corporate Tax Registration : How and When to Register ?

Corporations in UAE have to register with the Federal Tax Authority and get a corporation tax registration ID or number.

The UAE Corporate tax registration applies to all businesses whether they are subject to 0 percent or 9 percent corporation tax. Depending on your business needs, you can choose from a list of corporate tax advisors in UAE who help you with all types of tax registration.

UAE Corporate Tax De registration

If your business is a corporation and is registered for corporate tax, you must deregister it before it ceases to be subject to corporate tax. The FTA will deregister your business if you have filed corporate tax returns, settled all of its corporate tax liabilities, and settled any penalties due for periods up to and including the date of cessation.

UAE Corporate Tax Return Filing

The FTA requires that businesses be allowed to file a single consolidated tax return, rather than requiring them to file multiple returns. This consolidated return must be filed within nine months of the end of each relevant tax period.

UAE Corporate Tax deadlines

The corporate tax regime is based on a self-assessment principle which means businesses are responsible for ensuring that the documents they submit to the FTA are correct and comply with the law.

The new UAE corporate tax regime allows taxpayers up to 21 months from the start of their financial year to prepare for filing and making their tax payments.

For example, businesses with a financial year starting on June 1, 2023, and ending on May 31, 2024, have until February 28, 2025 to file their corporate tax returns and make their payments.

For a business whose first tax period begins on January 1, 2024 and ends on December 31, 2024, the return and payment must be filed between January 1 and September 30, 2025.
