Tax Advisory

Corporate Tax Impact Assessment

Understand precisely how UAE Corporate Tax affects your entities, contracts and margins — before the first return makes it expensive to find out.

Overview

A proper impact assessment maps your legal structure, revenue streams and intercompany arrangements against the Corporate Tax law: what is taxable, what qualifies for relief, where the exposures sit and what the cash tax cost will actually be.

The output is a practical roadmap — restructuring options, elections worth making, documentation to prepare and a realistic view of your effective tax rate going forward.

Why it matters

Late corporate tax registration alone carries an AED 10,000 penalty. We keep you ahead of every deadline. Engagements are scoped by a senior adviser, priced as a fixed fee before work begins, and delivered by the same team that answers when you call.

FAQ

Common Questions

Is an impact assessment still worth it after registration?

Yes. Registration is administrative; the assessment determines how much tax you will actually pay and what you can legitimately do about it before positions harden.

Do free zone companies need this?

Especially so. Qualifying free zone person status depends on detailed income and substance tests — assuming the 0% rate applies without testing it is one of the most common and costly mistakes.

How are your fees structured for corporate tax impact assessment?

Every engagement is a fixed fee agreed in writing before work begins — scoped by a senior adviser after a short, free review of your situation. No hourly billing, no surprises, and the quote itself is free.

Do you work with free zone and mainland companies?

Yes — we act for mainland, free zone and offshore entities across the UAE. Free zone rules, including Qualifying Free Zone Person status, are assessed explicitly as part of the engagement since they change both the tax position and the documentation required.

What happens if the FTA asks questions later?

Every position we take is documented and defensible at the time we take it. If the FTA raises a query or opens an audit, the same team that did the work supports the response — including penalty mitigation and voluntary disclosure where relevant.

What do we need to provide to get started?

Typically your trade licence, ownership structure, recent financials and access to your accounting records. We send a short checklist after the first call and handle the heavy lifting from there.
