Corporate Tax for Ajman Free Zone companies

Every Ajman Free Zone company must register for Corporate Tax, even if it expects to pay 0% as a Qualifying Free Zone Person (QFZP). The 0% rate applies only to qualifying income and only where the conditions are met — including earning qualifying income, maintaining adequate substance, meeting the arm's length and transfer pricing rules, and keeping audited financial statements. Income that does not qualify is taxed at 9%. We assess your QFZP status and help you keep it.
