Frequently Asked Questions
What services does Baker Tilly UAE provide?
Baker Tilly UAE offers audit and assurance, tax (corporate tax, VAT, transfer pricing, international tax), consulting, risk advisory and digital services as the UAE member firm of Baker Tilly International.
Do I pay tax on Dubai rental income?
The UAE has no personal income tax, so individuals generally do not pay tax on rental income held personally. However, UAE Corporate Tax (introduced from June 2023 at a 9% standard rate) can apply to rental and property income earned through a business or company. A tax adviser can confirm how it applies to your structure.
Does UAE Corporate Tax apply to property investors?
UAE Corporate Tax (9%, effective for financial years from 1 June 2023) applies to businesses and certain entities. Whether it applies to a property portfolio depends on how the assets are held (personally vs through a company or free-zone entity). Firms like Baker Tilly advise on tax structuring for property holdings.
Is VAT charged on buying commercial property in the UAE?
As a general UAE rule, commercial property is standard-rated at 5% VAT, while the first supply of new residential property is zero-rated and subsequent residential leasing is exempt. VAT treatment of a specific transaction should be confirmed with a tax adviser.
Does Baker Tilly provide transfer pricing services?
Yes. Baker Tilly UAE's tax practice provides transfer pricing documentation and compliance, alongside corporate tax and VAT advisory, relevant to groups and property-holding structures with related-party transactions.
