With the UAE’s introduction of federal corporate tax, businesses face new compliance requirements in what was traditionally a tax-free environment. The corporate tax regime (9% for profits above AED 375,000) demands careful planning to optimize tax positions while maintaining full compliance. At Philip McMillanWoods, we help businesses navigate this transformative change with strategic corporate tax solutions tailored to the UAE market.
