Tax Compliance Services in Dubai, UAE — VAT and Corporate Tax
Expert VAT and Corporate Tax compliance support for businesses operating in the UAE — helping you meet your obligations accurately, on time, and with complete confidence.
Tax Compliance Challenges in Dubai
Running a business in the UAE under an evolving tax framework is no longer straightforward. Since the introduction of VAT in 2018 and the rollout of Corporate Tax from June 2023, businesses across all sectors face a growing set of compliance obligations — many of which carry significant penalties for non-compliance, late filing, or incorrect reporting.
For businesses without a dedicated tax function, keeping up with Federal Tax Authority requirements, understanding which transactions are taxable, managing input and output VAT accurately, and preparing for Corporate Tax assessments can become an overwhelming burden. The cost of getting it wrong — both financially and reputationally — is too high to leave to chance.

Our Working Process
01
Onboarding and Tax Position Review
We begin with a thorough review of your business structure, transaction types, existing registrations, and filing history. This allows us to establish a clear compliance baseline, identify any outstanding risks or historical issues, and set up a structured compliance process tailored to your business.
02
Compliance Planning and Setup
We establish your compliance calendar — mapping out all VAT return periods, Corporate Tax deadlines, and any other FTA obligations relevant to your business. We also ensure all necessary registrations are in place and that your records are structured to support accurate, efficient filing.
03
Return Preparation and Review
For each filing period, we collect and review your transaction data, prepare the return, reconcile figures against your accounting records, and conduct a final quality check before submission. Nothing goes to the FTA without thorough internal review.
04
Filing, Confirmation and Ongoing Support
We submit your return, confirm receipt, and provide you with a clear filing summary. We remain available throughout the period for any queries, FTA correspondence, or adjustments — and we proactively flag any changes in tax law that may affect your obligations going forward.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does my business need to register for VAT in the UAE?
Businesses with taxable supplies and imports exceeding AED 375,000 per annum are required to register for VAT with the Federal Tax Authority. Voluntary registration is available for businesses above AED 187,500. Finvida can assess your position and manage the registration process on your behalf.
What is the UAE Corporate Tax rate and who does it apply to?
UAE Corporate Tax applies at a rate of 9% on taxable income above AED 375,000, with a 0% rate on income up to that threshold. It applies to most businesses operating in the UAE, with specific provisions for free zone entities, exempt persons, and qualifying small businesses. Finvida can assess your specific position and obligations.
What happens if I miss a VAT filing deadline?
Late VAT filing results in penalties from the FTA, which can be substantial depending on the amount of tax due and the length of the delay. Finvida’s compliance service is designed to ensure no deadlines are missed — and if you have historical late filings, we can support you with Voluntary Disclosure where applicable.
Can Finvida help if my business is based in a UAE free zone?
Yes. Free zone businesses face specific and often complex considerations under both VAT and Corporate Tax — including Qualifying Free Zone Person status, transactions with mainland entities, and designated zone treatment. Finvida has direct experience supporting free zone businesses across the UAE.
How is Finvida's tax compliance service different from using an accountant?
While accountants may handle bookkeeping and financial reporting, dedicated tax compliance requires specific expertise in UAE VAT law and Corporate Tax legislation. Finvida’s service is focused entirely on tax compliance — ensuring your returns are not just filed, but filed correctly, reviewed thoroughly, and aligned with the latest FTA guidance.
