About this event
Starting from July 1, 2023, a corporate tax has been implemented in the UAE, and for many companies, the first tax reporting deadline is already approaching in September. There’s still time to get your company prepared and avoid penalties for non-compliance.
We explore the following topics
Who needs to file, when, and how
- How to maintain Free Zone status and pay 0%
- What can be optimized right now
- Common mistakes — illustrated with real-life examples
- What steps to take today to avoid regrets tomorrow
This is not just theory — we’ll break down practical, real-world scenarios faced by businesses and advisors in the UAE, including:
- Real Estate: How taxation on rental income and property sales depends on ownership structure (individual, company, or foundation)
- Holding Structures: Are dividends, royalties, and interest exempt from Corporate Tax — and when are they not?
- International Trade: How choosing the wrong Free Zone can cost you your tax benefits — and how to fix it
- IT & Consulting: Should you operate as a freelancer, set up a company, or register an SBR — and when do you start paying tax on your income?
