EmaraTax App: Revolutionizing Corporate Tax Compliance in the UAE
In a significant move to streamline tax administration, the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) has made strides in enhancing digital tax services with the introduction of the EmaraTax app. This innovative application, which debuted in October 2023, now allows users to perform a variety of corporate tax related activities with ease and efficiency.
The app is designed to be a one-stop solution for corporate entities, offering up to 15 services that cater to the needs of the UAE’s business landscape. Among these services, users can effortlessly register for corporate tax, amend their registration details, manage their accounts, and update banking information. This digital leap underscores the FTA’s commitment to facilitating voluntary tax compliance and delivering proactive services to taxpayers.
Available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play, the EmaraTax app extends its functionality beyond corporate tax. It encompasses procedures for VAT and excise tax, including registration, tax return submission, tax payments, refund requests for eligible categories, and filing reconsideration requests. The app’s comprehensive capabilities signify a substantial advancement in the realm of tax services.
Khalid Ali Al Bustani, FTA’s Director-General, highlighted the app’s alignment with the UAE Government’s Zero Government Bureaucracy Programme. “The Federal Tax Authority has provided the EmaraTax smart application, offering taxpayers 35 digital tax services,” he stated. Al Bustani also emphasized the FTA’s ambitious plans to adhere to the Government Services Quality Charter by implementing effective transformation measures aimed at reducing documentation requirements for service provision.
