Introduction
The introduction of corporate tax laws in the UAE marks a significant shift in the regulatory landscape, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). While these changes may seem daunting, the government has implemented relief measures to support SMEs in navigating this new environment. This blog outlines the corporate tax relief available to SMEs and emphasizes how Limrise can assist small businesses in leveraging exemptions while remaining compliant and minimizing tax liabilities.
Understanding Corporate Tax Relief for SMEs
The recent corporate tax framework introduces several relief measures specifically designed to support SMEs. These include:
- Exemptions for Small Businesses: SMEs with taxable income below AED 375,000 are exempt from corporate tax. This exemption aims to encourage growth and provide a financial buffer for startups and small enterprises.
- Reduced Tax Rates: For SMEs exceeding the exemption threshold, a reduced tax rate of 9% applies to income over AED 375,000. This progressive approach helps to alleviate the tax burden on smaller businesses as they grow.
- Deductions for Business Expenses: SMEs can deduct a variety of business expenses when calculating their taxable income. This includes operating expenses, employee salaries, and costs related to business development. Proper documentation of these expenses is essential for maximizing deductions.
