    Heads up: just had my Wio account suspended

    Thanks for these suggestions. Already done. - I used the police tool earlier today, and nothing. Also spoke with police and my record is clean. "The most likely scenario appears to be a typical instance of banks exerting undue pressure on individuals. Banks often mask their unwillingness to...

    Heads up: just had my Wio account suspended

    I know. I added this part as many folks in Dubai (and beyond) try to do things that aren't kosher. ;) I've been pushing. Trust me on this and working multiple channels. This forum has been helpful to me that's why I created this post to create awareness.

    Heads up: just had my Wio account suspended

    Not much. I should get an email within 20 days about the reason and we'll see then, I guess. Assuming SoF documents, etc? All they can share is that the account has been blocked. Each rep that looks through my transactions are equally surprised as I am as to why this has happened. An...

    Dubai salary - arm's length under corporate tax

    Gotcha. Appreciate your input. I've been seeking local advice, but this is Dubai. I guess that says it all ;) Just highlighting, there will be no tax regardless of salary taken due to the ability to claim small business relief since my revenue will be less than AED 3m.

My FZCO will be doing less than AED 3 million so I will be claiming Small Business Relief and paying 0% tax. In previous years, I have been paying myself a significant salary. Now with corporate tax...

    Dubai: to audit or not to audit?

    With the inspection notices from DIEZ that everyone has been receiving, I thought it would be good to get some input from the community. I have been in contact with IFZA and they maintain that there are no audit requirements for IFZA companies. For reference, my company was incorporated in...

    Dubai - First Audit Request From DIEZ

    Just received my audit request this morning and yes, it came all of a sudden. Especially since IFZA had informed me earlier in the year that there would be no audit for 2023-2024. My company's year is May to April. And of course nothing was mentioned at the time of renewal, except that I may...

    Dubai is dead, any alternative to the free zone 9% tax?

    I spoke with ifza end of last year and they said something similar. They suggested on waiting to register for CIT as they're expecting new amendments/clarifications for freezone companies. Did you hear something similar?
