CORPORATE TAX
REGISTRATION AMENDMENT

Businesses submit certain documents and information about the company’s business and its shareholders to the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) while registering for corporate tax in the UAE to receive a Tax Registration number. If your business undergoes any changes later, you need to update the records by submitting a corporate tax registration amendment application to the FTA.
