    阿联酋税务与合规:创始人真正需要知道的

    阿联酋的税收环境已发生显著变化。自2018年起征收 VAT,自2023年起征收企业所得税。了解您的义务——并从一开始就为之规划——可以防止代价高昂的错误和意外。

    税务与合规一览

    阿联酋企业面临两种主要税收:VAT(对大多数供应品征收5%,超过375,000迪拉姆必须注册)和企业所得税(对超过375,000迪拉姆的利润征收9%)。自由区企业可能对其合格收入享受0%的企业所得税率,但这需要有真实的实质和合规性。除税收外,年度合规包括许可续期、签证管理、UBO申报和ESR报告。

    适用对象: 正在阿联酋设立或已在运营业务的创始人。

    关键提醒: 税收规则会演变。本指南反映了截至2026年2月的情况。请务必与 FTA 或合格的税务顾问核实。

    税务指南

    VAT

    UAE VAT is charged at 5% on most goods and services. Registration is mandatory once your taxable supplies exceed AED 375,000 in the previous 12 months (or are expected to in the next 30 days). Voluntary registration is available from AED 187,500. Free zone businesses may qualify for a 0% rate on certain supplies, but only if they meet specific 'Designated Zone' conditions — this is not automatic and must be verified. [R1][R2]

    Standard rate: 5%Mandatory registration: AED 375,000Voluntary registration: AED 187,500

    Corporate Tax

    UAE Corporate Tax (CT) applies at 9% on taxable income exceeding AED 375,000. Free zone entities can qualify for a 0% rate on 'Qualifying Income' — but only if they meet substance requirements, maintain adequate records, and their income qualifies under the rules. This is not automatic and requires careful structuring. The first tax period for most businesses started on or after 1 June 2023. [R1][R2]
