UAE has already introduced Value Added Tax (‘VAT’) in 2018. UAE also levies Excise Tax on certain goods that are considered harmful to human health.

The UAE joined the OECD Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (“BEPS”) on 16 May 2018. By joining the Inclusive Framework, the UAE has committed to implement BEPS minimum standards.

As a process of implementing BEPS minimum Standards, UAE has introduced Economic Substance Regulations to initiate adherence to Action 5 and CbCR to adhere to Action 13. The possibility of the introduction of Transfer Pricing Regulations also cannot be ruled out.

UAE has also been the signatory to join the most powerful multilateral treaty against offshore tax evasion and avoidance in the process of preventing Treaty Abuse (Action 6).

Further, the introduction of the Beneficial Owner Procedure in 2020 is in accordance with the Anti Money Laundering Regulations.
