Your UAE entity, handled locally, reported the way head office needs

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do UAE subsidiaries of foreign groups pay Corporate Tax?

Yes. UAE-incorporated companies are UAE tax residents and must register and file Corporate Tax returns, even if they're owned by a foreign parent.

How do you handle charges between our UAE company and head office?

Intercompany charges such as management fees, royalties and loans must be at arm's length under UAE transfer pricing rules. We help price, document and disclose them.

Can you report in our head office's format?

Yes. We prepare monthly reporting packs to your group's timetable and chart of accounts, alongside UAE statutory accounts.

Do I need to be in the UAE to work with you?

No. Most of our international clients work with us by video call, email and WhatsApp. We only need originals or signatures where UAE authorities require them.
