Here is bad news for the individuals who do not register corporate tax on time in UAE. The Finance Ministry now announced that a new fine of Dh10,000 will be charged to those people who are late for corporate tax registration.
The major aim of taking this step is to encourage people to follow the tax rules and register on time. The same amount will also be charged on late registration of other taxes.
Cabinet Decision No. 10 of 2024 modifies the tax offense penalties. The Federal Tax Authority abides by Cabinet Decision No. 75 of 2023, which established these sanctions. Commencing on March 1, 2024, is the new fine.
