In order to expand our UAE offerings and support our international, regional and local clients, we have added a Tax Practice to our current Corporate offerings.  Our Corporate Team already has a deep understanding of our region's business and legal environment and tax is rapidly becoming an integral part of that environment.

With the introduction of corporate tax in the UAE, tax is rapidly becoming an important part of the UAE Corporate and commercial landscape.

Our tax team is able to provide UAE focused tax advice in relation to a variety of corporate and commercial matters, including corporate structuring, review of UAE operating models, the utilization of free zones, M&A activity, asset and share sales, review of commercial agreements, business transfers, tax administration, domestic transfer pricing requirements, engagement with the federal tax authority and international taxation.

Our team has experience in international, regional and local tax laws and is able to bring a best practice approach to the UAE. We navigate our clients through the current uncertainties of the local requirements and provide practical options and solutions to help manage tax risk in this developing area of the law.
