Corporate Tax Registration is registering for UAE corporate tax at 9% on profits above AED 375,000, and it applies to every UAE company, including free zone and mainland entities, must register even if it qualifies for the 0% rate. GoldenKey handles Corporate Tax Registration for the companies we form and for businesses that come to us later, so the process is routine for our tax team. Romanian IT talent and construction firms are well represented in Dubai, which gives Romanian entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their Corporate Tax Registration licence is issued. For most clients, payments between Romania and the UAE are routine: the dirham is pegged to the dollar, Romanian leu (RON) transfers settle without delay and UAE banks are familiar with Romanian business profiles.
Why Corporate Tax Registration
In our experience, penalties for late Corporate Tax Registration or late filing start at fixed amounts and grow with delay, which is why GoldenKey diarises every deadline for its clients. GoldenKey prepares the EmaraTax submission for Corporate Tax Registration, uploads the documents and follows up with the FTA until the certificate is issued. For Romanians, the practical advantages of Corporate Tax Registration are the ease of travel between Romania and the UAE, English is widely spoken by Romanian professionals, and a banking system that processes Romanian leu (RON) transfers daily.

Why the UAE
Since 2021, most mainland activities have allowed 100% foreign ownership, and free zones have always offered it, so corporate tax registration for Romanian-owned companies no longer requires a local partner. In our experience, the dirham has been pegged to the US dollar since 1997, which removes currency risk for corporate tax registration for Romanian-owned companies and makes international pricing simple.

Frequently asked questions
What happens if I miss the Corporate Tax Registration deadline?
To be clear, late registration attracts a fixed penalty, and late filings add further penalties. If you are already late, GoldenKey can register you and advise on penalty reconsideration where grounds exist.
Can GoldenKey act as my tax agent?
Absolutely. GoldenKey can prepare and submit filings on your behalf and handle FTA correspondence, so you have one point of contact for licence, visa and tax matters.
Does Corporate Tax Registration apply to a new company with no revenue yet?
Yes. Corporate tax registration is required regardless of revenue, and the deadline is set by the licence date, so new companies should register soon after incorporation.
Can a Romanian citizen own 100% of a company in Corporate Tax Registration?
Yes. Romanians can own the full share capital of a Corporate Tax Registration company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
Do Romanians need a UAE visa before applying for Corporate Tax Registration?
Not in that case. You can apply for the licence from Romania with scanned supporting documents, and the investor residency visa is processed afterwards.
