Accurate Corporate Tax Return Filing for UAE Businesses

Filing a UAE Corporate Tax Return requires more than submitting figures through EmaraTax. Businesses need to review their financial records, calculate taxable income, apply relevant adjustments, assess available reliefs and determine the Corporate Tax payable for the tax period.

At A2R Info Solutions, we support UAE Mainland and Free Zone businesses with Corporate Tax Return preparation, taxable income calculations, supporting schedules and EmaraTax filing assistance to help meet FTA requirements accurately and within the applicable deadline.

Who Needs to File a Corporate Tax Return in UAE?

Businesses and individuals subject to UAE Corporate Tax generally need to file a Corporate Tax Return for each applicable Tax Period, even where no Corporate Tax may ultimately be payable.

UAE Mainland Companies

Companies incorporated or established in the UAE Mainland that are subject to Corporate Tax generally need to file a Corporate Tax Return for each relevant Tax Period.

UAE Free Zone Companies

Free Zone businesses are also required to file Corporate Tax Returns, including Qualifying Free Zone Persons that may benefit from a 0% rate on Qualifying Income.

Individuals Conducting Business in the UAE

Natural persons carrying on a business or business activity in the UAE are generally subject to Corporate Tax where their total business turnover exceeds AED 1 million in a calendar year.

Foreign Businesses With a UAE Taxable Presence

Foreign companies may have UAE Corporate Tax filing obligations where they have a taxable presence in the UAE, such as a Permanent Establishment.

Businesses Claiming Small Business Relief

Eligible businesses electing for Small Business Relief must still file a Corporate Tax Return. The FTA provides a simplified return process for qualifying businesses.

Corporate Tax Groups

Approved Tax Groups generally file a Corporate Tax Return through the Parent Company on behalf of the group, rather than each member filing separately.

Not Sure If You Need to File?

Our team can review your UAE Corporate Tax position and help determine the return filing requirements that apply to your business.

Got questions? We’ve answered the most common ones for you.

What is the deadline for filing a Corporate Tax Return in the UAE?

Corporate Tax Returns and any Corporate Tax due are generally required to be filed and paid within nine months from the end of the relevant Tax Period. For example, a business with a financial year ending 31 December 2025 generally has until 30 September 2026 to file and pay.

Yes, a Taxable Person may still have a filing obligation even when no Corporate Tax is ultimately payable. This can happen where taxable income is nil, losses arise, or an applicable relief is claimed.

Yes. Free Zone Persons can still have Corporate Tax filing obligations, including businesses that qualify for the 0% Corporate Tax rate on Qualifying Income. The return includes information relevant to Free Zone status and applicable tax treatment.

Yes. Eligible businesses claiming Small Business Relief are still required to file a Corporate Tax Return within the applicable deadline. The FTA provides a simplified return process for qualifying taxpayers.

The exact documents depend on the business, but commonly include financial statements, trial balance, general ledger, revenue and expense schedules, fixed asset details, tax loss information, related party details where applicable, and supporting records for adjustments, exemptions or reliefs claimed.
