COMPLIANCE FRAMEWORK

Compliance Starts From Day One, Not Later.

The UAE compliance environment is enforcement-active. Corporate tax registration, VAT monitoring, UBO declarations, AML obligations, and proper accounting records all require an organised compliance framework from the moment the licence is issued.

TRUVIS establishes and manages that framework through structured filings, documented accounting processes, compliance calendars, and advisor-led review so clients can operate with confidence across UAE regulatory requirements.

DECISION STANDARD

Every service is structured around clarity, documentation, and long-term operational fit — not simply completing a transaction.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Answers reflect the position as at October 2026. Rules change and every application is decided by the relevant authority, so treat this as orientation rather than advice on your specific case.

Does every UAE company need to register for corporate tax?

Yes. Every UAE company, including free zone companies that expect to pay 0%, must register with the Federal Tax Authority through EmaraTax. Late registration attracts an administrative penalty. Our corporate tax registration guide walks through the process and deadlines.

When is VAT registration mandatory in the UAE?

VAT registration is mandatory when taxable supplies and imports exceed AED 375,000 over the previous 12 months, or are expected to exceed it in the next 30 days. Voluntary registration is available from AED 187,500. Threshold monitoring matters because late registration is penalised.

What is a Qualifying Free Zone Person?

A free zone company that meets specific conditions — adequate substance in the free zone, qualifying income, transfer pricing compliance, audited financial statements and not electing to be taxed at the standard rate — can apply 0% corporate tax to its qualifying income. Non-qualifying income above the de minimis limits is taxed at 9%. Status has to be maintained every year, not just claimed once.

Does my company need audited financial statements?

Audited statements are required for Qualifying Free Zone Persons and for businesses above the revenue threshold set by the Ministry of Finance, and many free zones require them for licence renewal regardless. We keep bookkeeping audit-ready throughout the year so the audit is a review, not a reconstruction.
