How Much Is R&D Tax Relief?
Typical rates and amounts for research and development tax credits.
The amount of R&D tax relief depends on the rules and rates set by the tax authority. In the UAE, the Federal Tax Authority will set rates and caps when the scheme launches. This page is for information only.
What typically affects the amount
In many jurisdictions, the amount of research and development tax relief depends on qualifying expenditure, the rate of relief or credit, and whether the company is profit- or loss-making. The UAE may use similar mechanics.
Rates and caps
Rates and any caps will be set by UAE legislation and the Federal Tax Authority. For current or proposed figures, check official UAE government and FTA sources.
Getting an estimate
For an estimate of how much R&D tax relief you might get in the UAE once the scheme is live, refer to FTA guidance or speak to a qualified adviser.
