FAQ

Common questions.

  • Who needs to register for corporate tax in the UAE?

    All taxable persons, including mainland and free zone companies, must register for corporate tax with the FTA, even those taxed at 0%. TaxBox confirms your obligation and handles the registration.

  • Is corporate tax registration mandatory even if my profit is below AED 375,000?

    Yes. The 0% rate applies below AED 375,000, but registration is still required. We register you correctly so you're compliant regardless of profit.

  • What is the deadline to register for corporate tax?

    Registration deadlines are set by the FTA based on your licence issuance. We check your specific deadline and register you ahead of it.

  • What is the penalty for late corporate tax registration?

    The FTA applies an administrative penalty for late registration. TaxBox registers you on time so the penalty doesn't apply.

  • Do free zone companies need to register for corporate tax?

    Yes. Free zone companies, including Qualifying Free Zone Persons, must register even when taxed at 0%. We ensure your free zone status is documented correctly.

  • How long does corporate tax registration take?

    FTA processing times vary, but a correctly prepared application avoids delays. We prepare yours right the first time to keep it moving.

  • What happens after I register for corporate tax?

    Registration is the first step. Once registered, you must file an annual corporate tax return. TaxBox handles that too, so you're covered end-to-end.
