In recent decades, Dubai has developed into one of the most attractive business locations in the world – and not without reason. In addition to a state-of-the-art infrastructure, a strategically favorable location between Asia, Europe and Africa and extremely business-friendly policies, Dubai is known above all for its tax advantages. Companies, investors and private individuals benefit from one of the most efficient tax systems in the world, which specifically promotes growth and prosperity.
A key factor that attracts many entrepreneurs and professionals is the income tax exemption. In most countries, private individuals have to pay a significant portion of their salary to the state – in Dubai, however, the entire income remains in their own hands. This opens up unimagined financial opportunities, be it for investments, business start-ups or simply an improved quality of life.
Companies also benefit enormously. Particularly attractive are the free zones, which allow foreign investors to set up a company with 100% ownership – without the need for a local sponsor or partner. In addition, these zones offer significant tax reductions or even tax exemptions, making them an ideal location for international companies.
Corporate tax in Dubai has been reformed in recent years to ensure even greater economic stability.
Tax advantages in Dubai
An outstanding feature of Dubai is the absence of income tax for individuals. This means that your salary is entirely yours, with no deductions for government taxes. Dubai also levies one of the lowest value added taxes in the world at just 5%. These tax advantages create an ideal environment for financial growth and prosperity.
Setting up a company in Dubai
Dubai offers a wide range of opportunities for entrepreneurs, particularly through the establishment of free zones. These zones make it possible to establish companies with 100% foreign ownership without the need for a local partner. Companies in these zones also enjoy benefits such as tax exemptions and simplified regulatory requirements.
