FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an international Tax Residency Certificate for?+
It is an official FTA document proving you are tax resident in the UAE for a given year, used abroad to claim double-tax treaty benefits — chiefly reducing or reclaiming foreign withholding tax and avoiding being taxed twice on the same income.
How long must a company exist before applying?+
A UAE company must generally have been established and operating for at least 12 months, with audited financial statements, before the FTA will issue an international TRC. Individuals qualify on residency tests rather than a company age.
What do individuals need to qualify?+
Resident individuals typically need to show sufficient days in the UAE (commonly 183 days, with shorter thresholds where there is a permanent home or centre of vital interests), supported by a valid residence visa, tenancy, bank statements and an immigration entry report.
How long does the FTA take to issue a TRC?+
Once a complete application is submitted on the FTA portal, processing usually takes a few weeks. Most delays come from incomplete evidence, which we pre-check so your application moves smoothly to issue.
