Transfer Pricing in UAE
With the introduction of the UAE Corporate Tax (CT) system under Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022, businesses in Dubai and across the UAE must adhere to strict regulations. These rules, announced by the Ministry of Finance (MoF) in December 2022, require businesses to apply the arm’s length principle in transactions between related parties.
This ensures that intercompany transactions are priced fairly, preventing tax avoidance and promoting transparency.
The Federal Tax Authority (FTA) enforces guidelines, and compliance is now a crucial aspect of doing business in the UAE. To help businesses meet these new requirements, the MoF issued Ministerial Decision No. 97 of 2023 on May 11, which details how companies must prepare and maintain documentation. This law applies to all UAE businesses, including those operating within free zones.
At Bestax, we’re all about providing the best transfer pricing services in UAE. We help businesses like yours go through corporate tax rules very smoothly. Especially when dealing with inter-company transactions, whether they’re local or international.

Transfer Pricing Compliance Process
01
Identify Related-Party Transactions
The first step involves reviewing all transactions with related parties and connected persons, both within and outside the UAE. These may include intercompany sales, management fees, intellectual property charges, financing arrangements, or cost-sharing agreements.
02
Select the Right Method
The UAE requires that related-party transactions be priced at arm’s length, meaning they should reflect conditions that would apply between independent parties. To determine this, businesses must select the most appropriate method from recognized approaches.
03
Conduct Benchmarking Analysis
A benchmarking study is conducted to test whether the selected method results in an arm’s length outcome. This involves identifying comparable companies, financial data, or market prices that support the pricing of intra-group transactions.
04
Prepare Documentation
To meet compliance requirements under UAE Corporate Tax Law, businesses must prepare all documentation. This documentation must be ready to present upon request by the Federal Tax Authority (FTA).
05
Submit Reports
Companies must disclose related-party transactions in their corporate tax return. In some cases, additional forms may be required, depending on transaction thresholds or FTA requirements. Timely and accurate submission is essential to remain compliant.
06
Audit Support & Dispute Resolution
In the event of a tax audit or FTA inquiry, businesses must be prepared to defend their transfer policies and documentation. Our services include audit support, negotiation with tax authorities, and dispute resolution to mitigate risks of adjustments or penalties.
