As a leading provider of business setup and compliance services in Dubai, TME Services wants to remind clients of an important upcoming change in accessing the UAE’s EmaraTax portal. This modification will affect all businesses operating in or expanding to the UAE.

Key Points:

1. New Login Requirement: Starting 30.09.2024, access to all FTA EmaraTax portal services will require logging in via the authorized person’s UAE PASS application.

2. Current Login Method Obsolete: After this date, EmaraTax’s existing username-and-password login system will no longer function.

3. Mandatory Account Linking: To maintain uninterrupted access to EmaraTax services for Value Added Tax (VAT) and Corporate Income Tax (CIT) purposes, businesses must link their existing EmaraTax account with the UAE PASS account of the authorized person.

4. Deadline for Action: This account linking must be completed by 29.09.2024 at the latest.

5. Scope: This change impacts all EmaraTax portal services.

Why This Matters for Your Business

For companies operating in the UAE, this login migration is crucial to maintain seamless access to tax services and ensure compliance with local regulations. Failure to complete the required account linking could result in disruptions to tax filings and other essential business processes.
