ESR
Introduction to Economic Substance Regulations (ESR) in the UAE
The UAE introduced Economic Substance Regulations (ESR) in 2019 to align with international standards on tax transparency and prevent harmful tax practices. These regulations require certain business activities to have substantial operations in the UAE. Our ESR services help businesses navigate these regulations to ensure compliance and avoid penalties.
What is Economic Substance Regulation (ESR)?
Economic Substance Regulations (ESR) are laws that require businesses engaged in specific activities to have substantial operations in the UAE. The aim of ESR is to prevent “letterbox” companies from benefiting from UAE’s favorable tax regime without conducting genuine business in the country. If your business is involved in certain activities, it must demonstrate adequate substance to comply with the ESR.
