Good to know
- The UAE has no personal income tax, so salary from employment is not taxed.
- The 9% UAE Corporate Tax is for businesses. Wages are not a business activity, but freelancers and contractors with a trade licence and more than AED 1 million in yearly turnover may need to register.
- Pension (GPSSA) contributions apply only to UAE and GCC nationals. Expats instead receive an end-of-service gratuity, paid by the employer.
- If you are a citizen of a country that taxes worldwide income (such as the US), your home country can still tax your UAE salary.
