According to the UAE Ministry of Finance announcement in January 2022, Corporate Tax in UAE will apply at a standard rate of 9% with the following tax segmentations and rates:
Corporate tax UAE is calculated at 9% of the net profit shown in the company's financial statements after deducting all applicable deductions and excluding the exempted income. Any foreign taxes paid will also be allowed for reduction from the profit shown in the financial statement.
The net profit derived after all deductions will be considered as taxable income. The 9 % corporate tax will be levied only if the taxable value exceeds AED 375,000.
Let’s look at the corporate tax calculation

Abdul LLP, a trader based in Abu Dhabi, UAE, declared their annual financial statements for 2021. The net profit declared by Abdul LLP is AED 500,000. They are also eligible for deductions of 25,000.

As shown in the table, first the net profit from the financial statement is reduced by deductions as allowed by the corporate rules. Later, the exempt amount of 375,000 is reduced to arrive at the taxable income. Thus, the corporate tax Abdul LLP will be paying is 9000 AED ( 100,000 @ 9%).
