Corporate Tax
Registration in the UAE
A taxable person is required to register for corporate tax in the UAE as mandated by Clause 1 of Article 51 of the Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022 (UAE CT Law). The Law specifically states that taxable businesses must conduct corporate tax registration in the UAE in line with the form and manner and within the timeline prescribed by the Federal Tax Authority (FTA).
The businesses should also obtain a Tax Registration Number (TRN) after conducting the registration.
