Tax-free income

Taxes are a part of every business all over the world. Businesses normally experience being charged taxes in various forms, not limited to but including the following:
– Tax on purchase of  imported raw material
– Tax on utility and bill charges
– Tax on miscellaneous business-related purchases
– Tax on business earnings or income

But in the UAE, it’s very different, and in a good way. You get to enjoy a tax-free income. Yes, you read that right. Your hard-earned business earnings go straight to you, the entire amount. You can also send money across the world and convert your earnings into any currency you desire.
To make matters more clear, the UAE facilitates tax-free income for personal and corporate income.

So why is tax-free income for a business owner such a big deal and a reason to set up a company in the UAE? It is normal to experience a shortage of cash flowing when a business opens its doors. That does not mean costs go on halt, costs incurred will remain. Having zero tax payable is a form of relief in such instances, especially at the beginning of opening a company.

UAE Residence Visa

When you acquire a valid business license, you are eligible to apply for the UAE Residence Visa.

The UAE Residence Visa is a golden ticket in its own way. You get to leverage the many advantages that otherwise would be impossible if you are a foreigner.‍

Known for acceptance and high aimed objectives

The UAE is known for dedicating each year to an important objective and implementing it in the form of various activities.

One of the most famous and appreciated is the Year of Tolerance – 2019. The wise leadership of the UAE dedicated this particular year to making the UAE a global capital for tolerance, co-existence, and cooperation.

‍
2020 emerged as the Year ‘’Towards the next 50’’ and 2021 emerged with the vision to make UAE one of the best countries in the world and celebrate its Golden Jubilee as a federation.

The country of opportunity

With an impressive GDP of USD 421 billion, the UAE is home to an active economy. The economy of the UAE is powered by its rich oil and gas reserves, tourism presence, tech trading, banking and education.

Various top universities around the world have opened their presence in the UAE, such as New York University Abu Dhabi and Heriot-Watt University in Dubai.

The best banks in the world have opened their branches in the UAE such as Citibank, HSBC, and Standard Chartered Bank.

With an increase in demand to cater to the global tastebuds and preferences of the multiple nationalities residing in the UAE, there are business opportunities to manifest.
