The introduction of UAE Corporate Tax has made transfer pricing a critical compliance area for businesses with related party transactions. Companies operating across borders must now document pricing policies that align with OECD guidelines and FTA regulations.
What Transfer Pricing Means for UAE Businesses
Transfer pricing ensures that transactions between related entities reflect fair market value. This applies to services management fees goods financing and intellectual property arrangements.
Businesses that fail to document these transactions face penalties audits and increased scrutiny.
Required Documentation Under UAE Rules
Companies subject to transfer pricing must prepare appropriate documentation to support pricing decisions.
Common documentation requirements include
- Master File
- Local File
- Benchmarking analysis
- Intercompany agreements
- Supporting financial schedules
Preparation requires coordination between finance tax and operational teams.
