The UAE’s Federal Tax Authority (FTA) has launched early registration for corporate tax through the EmaraTax platform for digital tax services.
The Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022 on the Taxation of Corporations and Businesses stipulates that taxable persons and businesses will be subject to nine per cent corporate tax from the beginning of their first financial year that starts on or after June 1, 2023.
Below is a complete details that businesses and individuals need to know about EmaraTax:
The FTA-launched digital platform EmaraTax significantly enhances the way UAE taxpayers can access the FTA’s services, pay their taxes and obtain refunds. The platform greatly enhances the ability of the FTA to administer taxes in the UAE, and enables better, faster decision-making and earlier engagement with taxpayers that need support.
Individual taxpayers, tax agents, legal representatives, foreign missions and diplomats, customs bodies and verification agencies all benefit from the range of new developments that EmaraTax brings to life.
Selected companies will receive invitations from the FTA by email and SMS, allowing them to register via the EmaraTax platform.
The FTA will announce at a later date when registration will be open for others.
The Authority will make sure to give ample time for companies and businesses to apply for registration and meet their legal obligations. Priority will be given to companies that have a financial year starting on June 1, 2023.
The corporate tax will come into effect for taxable persons and companies from the beginning of their first financial year that starts on or after June 1, 2023.
