Understanding TP Advisory in UAE

Transfer Pricing (TP) refers to the pricing of goods, services, or intellectual property between related entities. In UAE, TP advisory focuses on:

  • Aligning pricing with market conditions.
  • Meeting Federal Tax Authority (FTA) rules.
  • Preparing compliance documents like Master File and Local File.
  • Managing OECD transfer pricing standards.

Why Businesses Need TP Advisory Dubai

Professional TP advisory is crucial because:

  • It reduces the risk of FTA audits.
  • It ensures accurate benchmarking studies.
  • It helps avoid large penalties.
  • It protects the company’s global tax position.

Without professional guidance, companies may unintentionally violate regulations.

  • Resale Price Method.

  • Local File with UAE-specific transaction details.
  • Intercompany agreements.
