Expert guidance on UAE tax residency rules for individuals and companies. Al Aegis assists with Tax Residency Certificate (TRC) applications and helps you leverage treaty benefits.
Tax Residency Advisory — Establish and Leverage Your UAE Tax Residency. Tax residency in the UAE provides significant advantages, including access to the country's extensive network of Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements (DTAAs), favorable corporate tax rates, and zero personal income tax. Al Aegis Corporate Services guides individuals and corporations through the tax residency determination process and assists in obtaining Tax Residency Certificates (TRC) from the Ministry of Finance. For corporations, UAE tax residency is determined by either being incorporated in the UAE or being effectively managed and controlled from the UAE. For individuals, the criteria include physical presence in the UAE for 183+ days in a 12-month period, having a primary residence and financial/personal ties in the UAE, or meeting other qualifying conditions. A Tax Residency Certificate (TRC) is the official document that proves your UAE tax residency status. It is required to claim benefits under DTAAs, such as reduced withholding tax rates on income from treaty partner countries. The TRC is issued by the UAE Ministry of Finance and is valid for one year. Al Aegis assists with evaluating your tax residency position, determining the most favorable residency status, preparing TRC applications, and advising on the global tax implications of your UAE residency. Our experts ensure you meet all eligibility criteria and maintain your residency status on an ongoing basis.
