Economic Substance Regulation (ESR) Compliance Services in the UAE
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has implemented the Economic Substance Regulations on April 30th, 2019. These regulations mandate that companies must engage in substantial activities within the UAE, aligning with the global standards established by the OECD and the EU to promote fair business taxation, prevent harmful tax practices, and avoid being listed as a non-cooperative tax nation by the EU.
The Economic Substance Regulations introduce specific requirements for businesses to demonstrate their actual economic activity in the UAE, ensuring that they are not merely seeking to benefit from a low or non-tax jurisdiction. This measure aims to prevent the harmful tax practice of shifting profits from high-tax jurisdictions to low-tax regimes.
On August 10th, 2020, the UAE introduced the New Economic Substance Regulation through Cabinet of Ministerial Resolution no 57 of 2020 concerning Economic Substance Requirements. Additionally, Ministerial Decision no 100 of 2020 repealed and replaced the Erstwhile Regulations and their associated laws. As a result, entities are now required to comply with the Amended Regulations.
