Taxation

The minimum tax burden is a crucial feature of the UAE as an attractive business jurisdiction. Mostly, it is close to the taxation of offshore jurisdictions.   

At the same time, the UAE is not  included in the list of offshore and, accordingly, does not create associated risks in the context of international taxation.
