The rules, in the open

  • 9% federal corporate tax applies to taxable profit above AED 375,000; the first 375k is at 0% for every company.
  • Small Business Relief: resident businesses with revenue ≤ AED 3M per period (through the end of 2026) can elect to be treated as having no taxable income — tax due becomes zero.
  • QFZP: a Qualifying Free Zone Person pays 0% on qualifying income — this requires substance in the zone, audited accounts, transfer-pricing compliance and staying within de-minimis limits for non-qualifying revenue.
  • Losing QFZP status is retroactive-flavoured pain: fail a condition and the standard regime applies. This calculator shows arithmetic, not eligibility — eligibility is the actual work.
  • DMTT: large multinational groups (revenue ≥ EUR 750M) face a 15% domestic minimum top-up tax — outside this calculator’s scope.

Frequently asked

Do free zone companies pay UAE corporate tax?
A Qualifying Free Zone Person pays 0% on qualifying income, but 9% on non-qualifying income above AED 375,000. QFZP status needs substance in the zone, audited accounts and transfer-pricing compliance — break a condition and the standard 9% applies.
How much tax on AED 600,000 profit?
For a mainland company: 0% on the first AED 375,000, then 9% on the remaining AED 225,000 = AED 20,250, an effective rate near 3.4%. Small Business Relief or QFZP can take it to zero.
Until when does Small Business Relief apply?
For financial periods ending on or before 31 December 2026, resident businesses with revenue ≤ AED 3M can elect it and owe zero — but only if it is claimed in the return.
