Introduction: Why a UAE Corporate Tax Calculator?
With the recent introduction of corporate taxation in the United Arab Emirates, businesses must prepare for the 9% corporate tax regime on net profits exceeding AED 375,000. Whether you operate in the UAE Mainland or in specific free zones, understanding your corporate tax obligations is essential to maintaining financial compliance and stability.
To simplify the process, we have developed an all-in-one “UAE Corporate Tax Calculator” that makes it easy to estimate your potential tax liability. This tool will help you:
- Quickly calculate net profits by subtracting operating and other expenses from your gross revenue.
- Apply 0% tax on net profits up to AED 375,000.
- Automatically apply the 9% tax rate (or a custom rate if you prefer) on any amount above AED 375,000.
- Obtain a clear breakdown of your tax estimate so you can plan your finances effectively.

Q1: Who must pay corporate tax in the UAE?
All businesses operating in the UAE Mainland and selected Free Zones (with certain exceptions and incentives) are subject to the new corporate tax regime. However, small businesses and start-ups with net profit less than AED 375,000 will not owe any corporate tax.
Q2: How is net profit calculated?
Net profit is calculated by subtracting business-related expenses, such as operating and other costs, from your total revenue. Our calculator does this automatically for you.
Q3: What if the corporate tax rate changes in the future?
Our tool includes a Custom Tax Rate input, so you can override the default 9% rate anytime to accommodate changes in regulations or for hypothetical scenarios.
Q4: Do Free Zone companies have different rates?
Some Free Zone Entities may enjoy certain tax exemptions if they meet specific regulatory requirements. Always check the latest government guidelines or consult a tax professional.
