According to the FTA, the fines are meant to motivate businesses to respect the corporate tax framework that has been presented to support the diversification of the economy as envisioned for the UAE. The authority has urged companies to ensure accurate filing and timely payments to avoid unnecessary financial burdens.
As guidance and resource avenues for navigating this tax process the FTA assists businesses by enabling them to conduct registration and online payment portals for taxes, still, penalties which may complicate late payments greatly affect the balance sheet of companies and the fame of business too.
Businesses operating in the UAE are encouraged to be aware of corporate tax provisions and maintain records of financial data. The FTA continues emphasizing the need to create a compliance culture, and businesses must help the nation reap the benefits through economic growth.
