UAE corporate and business tax LAW 47/2022
It’s the first time to implement a law about corporate Tax in the United Arab Emirates
We shall explain corporate tax law simply by stating the article and then what we can understand.
Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022
on the Taxation of Corporations and Businesses
Article 2 – Imposition of Corporate Tax Corporate Tax shall be imposed on Taxable Income at the rates determined under this Decree-Law and payable to the Authority under this Decree-Law and the Tax Procedures Law.
Article 3 – Corporate Tax Rate
Corporate Tax shall be imposed on the Taxable Income at the following rates:
a) 0% (zero per cent) on the portion of the Taxable Income not exceeding the amount specified in a decision issued by the Cabinet at the suggestion of the Minister.
b) 9% (nine per cent) on Taxable Income that exceeds the amount specified in a decision issued by the Cabinet at the suggestion of the Minister.
Corporate Tax shall be imposed on a Qualifying Free Zone Person at the following rates: a) 0% (zero per cent) on Qualifying Income.

We understand from article 3 three the following interpretation;
1 – Any corporation or individual who does not make a profit that the ministerial decree will determine will not be subject to this law.
2 – It also means that the maximum percentage will not come beyond 9 %.
We shall periodically try to explain corporate tax law.
