By 30th September 2025 to Avoid Penalties
Taxable Persons are required to file their Tax Return and pay any Corporate Tax due to the FTA within 9 months from the end of the relevant Tax Period. Natural persons who have registered for Corporate Tax but whose Turnover falls below the AED 1 million threshold in a subsequent year must still file a ‘nil’ Tax Return by 30 September of the following calendar year, unless they deregister.
All UAE-based businesses are required to file their Corporate Tax Return (CTR) within 9 months from the end of their financial year. To ensure full compliance with the latest regulations, follow this essential checklist:
Maintain complete and accurate financial records, including detailed statements of income, expenses, and profits. These documents form the foundation of your Corporate Tax Return.
Evaluate whether your business qualifies for available tax reliefs such as Small Business Relief (SBR), Free Zone Relief, Business Restructuring Relief, Foreign Tax Credit Relief, and others
Determine your taxable income based on the latest UAE corporate tax laws and guidelines. Accurate calculations are critical for a compliant and optimized tax return.
Submit your CTR through the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) portal on or before the deadline. Late filings may result in penalties.
Pay all due taxes promptly to avoid interest charges or fines. Timely payment is a key component of maintaining good standing with tax authorities
