UAE Corporate Tax Filing Services
Filing Your Corporate Tax Return Is Not Just About the Numbers. It Is About Getting Them Right.
A Corporate Tax return is more than a form. It is a declaration to the Federal Tax Authority about your taxable income, deductions, exemptions, and the tax you owe. Errors in your return invite penalties, audits, and reclassification of your tax position. Jazaa prepares and files your Corporate Tax return so the numbers are accurate, the deductions are properly claimed, and the filing lands on time.
What Goes Into a Corporate Tax Return
Your return reports your accounting income, adjustments required under the tax law, exempt income, deductions claimed, and the resulting taxable income. The FTA expects this to reconcile with your audited or reviewed financial statements.
Adjustments Under the Tax Law
Not every expense in your P&L is deductible for Corporate Tax purposes. Entertainment, fines, donations above allowed limits, and certain related-party payments may need to be added back. Similarly, income that qualifies for exemption, such as dividends from qualifying subsidiaries, must be properly excluded. Jazaa works to identify the applicable adjustments so your return reflects the correct taxable position.

Why Accuracy Matters More Than Speed
A return filed on time but with errors creates more problems than most businesses realize. Errors that understate your tax liability attract penalties calculated on the shortfall amount. Errors that overstate your liability mean you paid more than you owed and now need to go through a correction process.
The Most Common Filing Mistakes
New businesses must register within the timeframe specified by the FTA from the date of incorporation. Jazaa handles registration as part of your company setup process to help avoid missed deadlines.
Common Questions About
Corporate Tax Filing
Returns must be filed within nine months of the end of your tax period. Your specific deadline depends on your financial year end date.
The FTA imposes penalties for late filing. The longer the delay, the greater the potential penalty exposure.
The FTA may require audited financial statements depending on your revenue level and entity type. Jazaa advises whether an audit is required for your specific situation.
Yes, but amendments must follow the FTA's correction process. Jazaa handles amended returns and manages any associated penalty implications.
You must still file a return. A nil return confirms to the FTA that you had no taxable income for the period.
