One response
Yes, corporate tax registration is mandatory for most businesses in the UAE, particularly following the implementation of the federal corporate tax law that came into effect on June 1, 2023. Under this law, businesses with an income exceeding a certain threshold are required to register for corporate tax and comply with related regulations.
However, there are exceptions, such as for certain business activities, like those qualifying for 0% tax rates (e.g., certain free zone businesses), and smaller enterprises may fall below the taxable income threshold. It’s essential for businesses to consult with a tax advisor or legal expert to understand their specific obligations and ensure compliance with the law.
