When must a RAK ICC company register for corporate tax?

Last updated: Oct 21, 2026, 17:46 (UTC+08:00)

Generally within 3 months of incorporation, even if it will pay nothing, because it is a UAE-incorporated company (confirm your date with your specialist). Late registration carries an AED 10,000 penalty, which the Federal Tax Authority may waive if the first return is filed within 7 months after the first tax period ends. We register the company as part of setup.
