What's Included
Every corporate tax engagement covers the full compliance cycle — from registration to filing — so nothing is missed and no deadline slips.
FTA corporate tax registration
We register your entity with the Federal Tax Authority and set up its tax profile correctly: the right legal form, financial year, and elections. Get this wrong at the start and every return after it is wrong too.
Taxable income calculation
We adjust your accounting profit for disallowed expenses, reliefs and exemptions exactly as UAE Corporate Tax Law requires. You pay tax on the correct figure — not an inflated one.
Quarterly & annual tax filing
We prepare and submit your returns on time, every time, with a compliance calendar that tracks every FTA deadline for your entity. No last-minute scrambles, no late-filing penalties.
Transfer pricing documentation
For groups with related-party transactions, we prepare master files, local files and the required disclosures so your intercompany pricing stands up to FTA scrutiny.
How It Works
A clear, four-step process from first review to ongoing compliance.
Free Corporate Tax Review
We assess your current position: registration status, accounting records, and exposure to penalties. You get a straight answer on where you stand.
Registration + data cleanup
We complete your FTA registration and clean up the underlying financial data so the tax calculation rests on accurate books.
Calculation and filing
We compute your taxable income, prepare the return, and file it with the FTA before the deadline.
Ongoing compliance calendar
We keep you on a rolling calendar of registrations, filings and payments, with reminders well before each due date.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who must register for corporate tax in the UAE?
Every taxable person — including mainland companies, free-zone entities and many natural persons conducting business — must register with the FTA, even if no tax is ultimately payable. Registration is separate from filing, and missing it carries its own penalty, so we complete registration before any filing work begins.
What is the 9% rate and the AED 375,000 threshold?
The UAE levies 0% on taxable income up to AED 375,000 and 9% above that threshold, per taxable person. Free-zone persons may qualify for 0% on qualifying income if they meet the conditions — we model your exact position so you never overpay or misreport.
What are the penalties for late registration or filing?
The FTA imposes fixed penalties for late registration, late filing and late payment, plus monthly late-payment penalties that compound. Voluntary disclosure after the fact costs far more than getting it right the first time, which is why our compliance calendar keeps you ahead of every deadline.
What documents do you need from us?
Typically your trade licence, memorandum of association, financial statements and records of related-party transactions if any. We send a tailored checklist at the start of the engagement so collection takes days, not weeks.
