How it works
How Does the Corporate Tax Calculator Work?
- 1. Accounting profit
- Starts from your profit before tax in the financial statements.
- 2. Adjustments
- Adds back non-deductible expenses and removes exempt income such as UAE dividends.
- 3. Losses
- Applies losses brought forward, limited to 75% of taxable income.
- 4. Rates
- Applies 0% to the first AED 375,000 and 9% to the balance.
- 5. Reliefs
- For Small Business Relief, treats income as nil if revenue is up to AED 3 million. For a QFZP, applies 0% to qualifying income and tests the de minimis limit.
The calculator does not apply transfer pricing adjustments, the interest limitation rule, tax groups or foreign tax credits. For a full calculation, see our corporate tax calculation guide.

Frequently asked questions
UAE Tax Calculator – FAQs
Short answers to the questions UAE businesses ask us most. Still unsure?
Talk to our team01.How is UAE corporate tax calculated?
On taxable income: accounting profit adjusted for non-deductible expenses, exempt income and losses. The first AED 375,000 is taxed at 0% and the rest at 9%.
02.How do I calculate 5% VAT?
Multiply the net amount by 5% to get the VAT, and add it to get the gross amount. To find the VAT inside a gross amount, divide the gross by 1.05 to get the net and subtract.
03.How much VAT is in AED 1,050?
AED 50. The net amount is AED 1,000 (1,050 ÷ 1.05) and the VAT is 5% of that.
04.Is the calculator result final?
No. It is an estimate for planning and does not cover every rule, such as transfer pricing adjustments, interest limitation or tax groups.
05.Does the calculator store my figures?
No. The calculation runs in your browser and nothing you enter is sent or saved.
