Areas of focus

• UAE corporate tax, including Qualifying Free Zone Person qualification and the de minimis threshold
• UAE VAT registration, filing and reverse-charge treatment
• Free zone company formation — jurisdiction, legal form and licensing

What he writes about

The guidance published here comes out of running formations and bookkeeping at volume rather than from summarising legislation second-hand. That shapes what it covers: not only what the rules say, but what actually happens when founders apply them — which zones bank easily, where attestation adds weeks, how the de minimis threshold behaves when revenue moves mid-year.

• Company formation in Dubai and the UAE — jurisdictions, legal forms, process and cost
• UAE corporate tax for free zone companies — the QFZP conditions and the de minimis threshold
• Business setup cost in Dubai — all-in first-year cost across zones
• Owning a Dubai company without living in Dubai — including the home-country tax question

Editorial standard

Pages that make tax or regulatory claims cite the instruments they rest on — the corporate tax guidance points to Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022 and to the Federal Tax Authority's published material rather than paraphrasing it unattributed. Cost figures are stated as indicative ranges from Maya AI client work, and where a zone quotes on request we say so instead of inventing a number.

Maya AI sets up UAE companies and keeps their books. It is not a law firm or a licensed tax agent, and nothing published here is advice on your specific circumstances. Where a decision turns on QFZP qualification, permanent establishment or cross-border treatment, that is a question for a qualified adviser.
