Transfer Pricing and Documentation
Ensure Compliance with UAE Transfer Pricing Rules
As businesses grow and expand across borders, transfer pricing becomes an essential aspect of compliance. The UAE’s transfer pricing rules require businesses to ensure that transactions between related parties are conducted at arm’s length to avoid profit shifting and ensure fair taxation. At Capital Zone Accounting and Bookkeeping, we provide comprehensive transfer pricing solutions that help businesses comply with the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines and UAE tax regulations. Our experts are well-versed in UAE transfer pricing rules, ensuring that your business’s intercompany transactions are properly documented, compliant, and transparent.
What is Transfer Pricing?
Transfer pricing refers to the pricing of goods, services, and intellectual property transferred between related companies, often within a multinational group. It is essential that these transactions are priced according to the arm’s length principle, meaning that prices should be the same as if the companies were independent, unrelated entities. This prevents profit shifting and ensures proper taxation across jurisdictions.
