How to Amend Taxable Person Details in Your CT Profile

Managing business records can feel like an intricate job, especially when your corporate tax (CT) profile contains old or incorrect details. Mistakes or outdated information can lead to delays, miscommunication, and even penalties. Many taxpayers ignore minor changes in business details until they create a problem during compliance or an audit.

You may find it complicated to fix, but it’s not that hard work. Updating your taxable person details in the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) portal is simple if you follow the correct steps.

At Tax Gian, our expert corporate tax consultants in the UAE will help you amend and update your key details, without stress or confusion.

Log In to the Emaratax Portal

Start by logging into the Emaratax portal. You can use either your usual credentials or UAE Pass. If you’ve forgotten your password, there’s a “Forgot Password” option to reset it easily.

Once inside, go to the dashboard and select the taxable person whose details you want to amend. Click on the “Taxable Person Details“ tab to begin.

Read the Guidelines First

Before anything, you’ll be shown a page with instructions and guidelines. These explain what you’ll need during the process, such as updated licenses, documents, and contact info.

Tick the checkbox to confirm that you’ve read and understood the instructions. Then click Start to proceed. If you are a new taxpayer, consider taking help from corporate tax consultants in the UAE.

Complete Four Key Sections

The application to amend taxable person details is divided into four short sections. A progress bar will guide you. Each section needs to be fully completed before moving on. Before initiating the process, make sure to read the following details carefully and keep the required information at hand.

1. Entity Details

This section is filled in automatically using the information from your registration.

• Click Enable Editing to make changes.
• If you open a section by mistake, choose Disable Editingto lock it again.
• You can’t change greyed-out fields.
• Click Next Step to move on after making any needed changes.

2. Identification Details

In the 2nd section, you can update:

• Main license details
• Business activity details
• Owner list
• Local branch information

Don’t skip any mandatory details and proceed only when required fields are filled.

3. Contact Details

This section allows you to edit the contact information of the business.

• Update Emirates details, or address.

Again, all required fields must be completed before clicking Next Step.

4. Review and Submit

At this point, you’ll be able to review all the information you entered.

• The old data will appear in red.
• New entries will be highlighted in green.

Check everything carefully. Then mark the checkbox to declare that the information provided is correct.

Click Submit to send your application. A confirmation message will appear along with a reference number. Keep this number for follow-up.

The above guide makes it easier for you to amend your details in the CT profile. However, new users can still get confused and should consider taking assistance from corporate tax consultants in Dubai.

Once submitted, your application status will show “In Review.” The FTA will either:

If more information is needed, you’ll receive an email explaining what to provide. Once your application is approved, your status will be updated to “Approved.” 

Where to Track Your Application

Go to the Taxable Person Details tab and click View Amendment History. There, you can:

• Check your application status
