Locked-In Deadlines: Corporate Tax Registration Schedule Unveiled

Disclaimer: This article is intended for general information only and does not constitute personal financial advice under UAE regulations governing financial blogs and advertisements.

The UAE Corporate Tax Legislation mandates that all entities subject to taxation, along with specific exempt entities such as Qualifying Public Benefit entities and Qualifying Investment Funds, must complete registration for Corporate Tax (CT) with the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) to secure a Tax Registration Number (TRN).

Previously, the FTA released Decision No. 7 of 2023 outlining the deadlines for obtaining Corporate Tax registration and seeking exemption for select exempt entities as per the UAE Corporate Tax Law.

Recently, the FTA issued Decision No. 3 of 2024 detailing the deadlines for submitting Corporate Tax registration applications for all entities subject to taxation under the UAE Corporate Tax Law. Additionally, amendments were made to Cabinet Decision No. 75 of 2023 (through Cabinet Decision No. 10 of 2024) to define the administrative penalties for non-compliance with the stipulated deadlines.
