UAE Corporate Tax:
From Compliance to Controversy – What Businesses Need to Get Right in 2027

As the UAE Corporate Tax regime continues to mature, the focus for businesses is increasingly moving beyond implementation and filing compliance towards managing areas of technical uncertainty, FTA scrutiny and potential tax controversy.

The session will provide a practical discussion of some of the key Corporate Tax issues that UAE businesses and multinational groups should be considering as they prepare for 2027.

Key focus areas:

• Free Zone taxation and the practical challenges associated with maintaining Qualifying Free Zone Person status
• Transfer Pricing, related-party transactions and the increasing importance of robust documentation and defensible intercompany arrangements
• Corporate restructurings, available reliefs and common tax considerations arising from reorganisations
• FTA audits, private clarifications and practical approaches to managing areas of uncertainty
• Key actions businesses should be taking now to identify and mitigate potential Corporate Tax exposures
