What's Included
Why Advisory Support Matters
Corporate Tax guidance continues to evolve as the Ministry of Finance and FTA issue further clarifications on areas that were previously ambiguous, particularly around free zone Qualifying Income and group relief conditions. Relying on outdated assumptions is one of the more common ways businesses end up with an unexpected tax liability discovered only at filing time or during an assessment.
Getting advice before a transaction or restructuring happens is also considerably cheaper than correcting the treatment afterward, since a structuring decision made with the right advice upfront often avoids exposure that would otherwise only surface months later.

What We'll Need From You
For businesses that need support with wider tax obligations, our Corporate Tax Compliance Services can help manage ongoing requirements, while our Corporate Tax Accounting Services support accurate financial records and tax reporting.
Our Process
We review the facts of your situation against current Corporate Tax legislation and guidance, provide a clear written recommendation, and where needed, help implement it in your accounting records or group structure going forward.
Common Situations We Advise On
Typical consultancy questions include whether a specific income stream qualifies for the free zone 0% rate, how to structure a related-party loan or management fee correctly, whether group relief applies to a planned restructuring, and what changes when a business adds a second entity in a different free zone or emirate.
We also advise on less common but genuinely important scenarios — the tax implications of winding down one entity within a group while keeping others active, or how a change in ultimate beneficial ownership affects existing elections and relief positions.
Working Alongside Your Existing Team
Consultancy does not require switching your entire accounting relationship — we regularly work alongside an existing in-house finance team or external accountant, providing the specific Corporate Tax judgment call they need without taking over day-to-day bookkeeping.
Why Businesses Choose Us for Consultancy
Because we also handle Corporate Tax accounting, filing and disputes for a wide range of UAE businesses, our advice is grounded in what we actually see happen when a particular structure or treatment is applied in practice, not just a theoretical reading of the legislation. This practical grounding is often what distinguishes genuinely useful advice from a technically correct but impractical answer.
We also follow up after implementing advice to confirm it was applied correctly in your accounting records and group structure, rather than treating the advisory engagement as finished the moment the recommendation is delivered.
Where a detailed review of your current tax position is required, our Corporate Tax Assessment service can provide additional support.
Consultancy Before a Major Decision
Significant business decisions — entering a new market, restructuring ownership, launching a new entity — are exactly the moments where a short consultancy engagement pays for itself many times over, catching a structuring issue before it is built into contracts, group agreements or systems that are expensive to unwind later.
Turnaround for Advisory Questions
Most single-question consultancy requests are answered within a few business days, while a more involved structuring review spanning multiple entities or cross-border considerations is scoped with a clear timeline agreed upfront before work begins.
Where a question touches on a genuinely unsettled area of FTA guidance, we say so clearly rather than presenting a confident answer where the position is still developing, so you can make an informed decision about how much risk you are comfortable carrying.
