Corporate Tax Error Correction Support UAE
Finding an Error in Your Tax Return Is Stressful. Fixing It Incorrectly Is Worse.
Errors happen. A deduction was calculated wrong. Income was reported in the wrong period. A relief was applied that you did not actually qualify for. The question is not whether the error exists. It is how you handle it. The FTA’s voluntary disclosure process gives you a path to correct mistakes with reduced penalty exposure, but only if done properly. Jazaa manages the entire correction process from identification through resolution.
How the FTA Handles Return Errors
If you discover an error in a filed return, the FTA expects you to correct it through a voluntary disclosure. The law provides for reduced penalties when errors are voluntarily disclosed compared to errors discovered by the FTA during an audit.
Errors That Require Disclosure
Understated taxable income. Overstated deductions or exemptions. Incorrect relief elections. Misclassified income between qualifying and non-qualifying categories. Wrong tax period calculations. Any error that results in a difference between what you reported and what you should have reported.

Common Questions About
CT Error Correction
Not always. Immaterial errors may not trigger disclosure requirements. Jazaa assesses each error against the FTA's materiality thresholds and advises accordingly.
No. But penalties for self-disclosed errors are generally lower than penalties for errors discovered by the FTA during an audit.
Yes. If errors span multiple periods, we prepare disclosures and amendments for each affected period.
That is exactly when you need advisory. We review the position and determine whether it constitutes an error requiring correction or a defensible interpretation of the law.
Promptly. The longer you wait, the higher the penalty exposure. The FTA may also view delayed disclosure less favorably than immediate action.
