The appointment is one you approve inside EmaraTax rather than something we can grant ourselves, and the FTA sets what it covers. It does not shift liability: the FTA holds the taxable person responsible for what a return says, whoever pressed submit. Keep your own EmaraTax login active, because some notices surface only there.",{"id":516,"question":517,"answer":518},12193,"How does the 2023 Corporate Tax regime apply to me?","Registration and filing are separate obligations, and both bite even where the tax is nil. An entity expecting to pay nothing still registers, still files within nine months of the end of its tax period, and still keeps records supporting the position. A late registration penalty applies regardless of profit. Free zone status is not permanent either, because qualifying income is tested every period afresh.",{"id":520,"question":521,"answer":522},12194,"My business is in DIFC \u002F ADGM \u002F DMCC. Do you support freezones?","Yes. DIFC and ADGM are not simply zones with a smarter address: each runs its own company law and its own registrar, and audited financial statements are usually a condition of licence renewal rather than an optional extra. Other zones vary widely on that point.

An allowance-heavy contract therefore builds far less than staff expect, and that gap turns into an argument on the way out unless the accrual is visible every month, which is how we run it.
