True, it's unfortunate but the freezone company can opt to get taxed as a mainland company and avail of the threshold of three million AED tax free.
What I don't understand is why anyone would incorporate a freezone company anyways since they have all but lost their advantages over mainland companies.

From what I know it is more expensive and more difficult.
 
Well, freezones don't need to charge VAT when working with non-UAE clients and other freezones. So one less tax to manage and 5% cheaper for clients.

Probably not, but if they trade with freezones - they do (or so I was told).
So the only advantage of FZCO for non-qualifying trading is basically FZCO-FZCO trade. I might be wrong, I tried to ask several accounting guys and received the opposite views.
 
It's worth to keep your self up to date with the latest tax regulations in the UAE.

Right now, it feels like a total mess in the UAE - I bet even the tax folks there don't have a clue about their own rules. It's like pure chaos. Kinda like when you chop off a chicken's head, and it just keeps running around all over the place, totally lost.

One of my favorit articles in Mentor Group ~ Sending money anonymously archieve Financial Anonymity
 
Last month I paid quite a big amount for a reputable tax consultant agency in Dubai to do a tax assessment for the company. After around a month back and forth they said they could not still clearly say if we had to pay tax or not and they refunded most of the payment. Their suggestion was to wait more for government clarification. And check back again”¦ so I can understand nobody knows

Let me agree with you)) It's not dangerous for small businesses. But if we talk about companies "exceeding their income by 375K", then audits, reporting, registration...headache. And yes, we are all waiting for the template when they finally have a single document (draft to fill out) for Corporate tax and VAT.
 
The situation in Dubai is the same, no one knows anything about the changes there and the 9% tax apply to all companies incorporated during the last years.

Are there any update to the current tax situation for Dubai companies or is everything still not clear on how to collect taxes to the Dubai regime ?

Greetings to you! Everything is very clear. The best advice for you if you do not want to hire an accountant or pay for a detailed consultation is to visit the FTA website.
