Guides

UAE e-invoicing 2027: phases, deadlines and PINT-AE: From 2027, most UAE business-to-business invoices must travel as structured PINT-AE data through an accredited service provider, not as PDFs. Here is who is affected, when, and what to prepare this quarter.

UAE VAT guide for SMEs (2026): Everything a UAE small business needs to run VAT properly in 2026: when to register, how to invoice, what you can recover, how to fill Form 201, and what the new penalty rules cost if you get it wrong.

UAE corporate tax guide for SMEs: Corporate tax now applies to almost every UAE business, including many that will owe nothing. This guide explains who must register, how the 0% and 9% rates work, when Small Business Relief helps, and how to get from accounting profit to the figure on your return.

WPS & UAE payroll guide: SIF files, deadlines and gratuity: Since 1 June 2026, salaries for the previous month are due through WPS on the 1st, with no grace period. This guide covers the new rule, the SIF file, pay and leave rules, end-of-service gratuity and pension contributions for Emirati staff.

Free zone corporate tax: QFZP, qualifying income and the 0% rate: Being licensed in a free zone does not make your profits tax-free. The 0% rate applies only to a Qualifying Free Zone Person, only on qualifying income, and only while every condition holds for the whole year.
