UAE Transfer Pricing Benchmarking Services

Conducting a benchmarking study or comparability analysis is essential for businesses to apply the arm’s length principle (ALP) effectively when determining transfer pricing. This process relies on a structured comparison between a company’s-controlled transactions (the “tested party”) and similar transactions undertaken by independent entities (the “comparables”) under comparable circumstances.

A benchmarking study is instrumental in establishing an arm’s length range of prices for controlled transactions. It enables businesses to compare their pricing strategies with industry standards, helping them select the most appropriate transfer pricing method and determine an arm’s length price (ALP) or profit level indicator (PLI).

MNEs use TP benchmarking to ensure related party transactions meet the arm’s length standard. Experts provide reliable TP analysis for compliance.

MNEs and their associate entities conduct transfer pricing benchmarking studies to ensure that related party transactions comply with the arm’s length principle. This analysis helps businesses validate their pricing strategies and meet regulatory requirements.

How a TP Benchmarking Study Helps Businesses

Determining the Appropriate Mark-up

Establishes defensible intercompany pricing using independent comparables.

Establishing the Arm’s Length Range

Provides a statistical price range, reducing tax authority disputes.

Insulation against Assessments by Regulatory Authorities

Serves as strong evidence for compliance, minimizing penalties.

How is a TP Benchmarking Study Conducted?

A TP benchmarking study involves analyzing controlled transactions (related party dealings) and identifying uncontrolled transactions (independent third-party transactions) for comparison. This process helps assess whether intercompany pricing aligns with the arm’s length principle.

Key Steps in a TP Benchmarking Study

Industry & economic analysis

Transaction review & data collection

Comparable selection & adjustments

Arm’s length price (ALP) determination

Seeking guidance from TP professionals ensures accuracy, compliance, and defensibility in tax audits.

FAQs on TP Benchmarking

A TP benchmarking study analyzes related party transactions by comparing them with similar transactions between independent entities. It helps determine whether the pricing aligns with the arm’s length principle (ALP) and regulatory standards.

A TP benchmarking study aims to analyse market conditions and identify comparable third-party transactions to assess transfer pricing compliance. It helps establish a range of values, such as the arm’s length price (ALP) or mark-up range, while considering relevant economic and industry factors influencing such transactions.

Benchmarking ensures that intercompany transactions comply with tax regulations, reducing the risk of TP adjustments, penalties, or audits by tax authorities. It also helps businesses establish fair pricing for related party transactions. 

The study involves selecting a tested party, identifying appropriate comparables, applying financial ratios or mark-ups, and determining an arm’s length range based on market data and industry trends. 

TP benchmarking relies on financial databases, industry reports, and public company filings to identify independent comparables that reflect market-driven pricing for similar transactions.

While TP benchmarking is generally conducted annually, updates may be required if there are significant business changes, regulatory updates, or tax authority requirements.

Related Party

Introductory Para

A related party refers to an individual or entity with an established relationship with a business subject to the UAE Corporate Tax (CT) framework. This relationship may arise through ownership, control, or kinship (for individuals).

To ensure compliance, taxpayers must identify their related parties as defined in Article 35 of the UAE CT Law, with additional guidance provided in the UAE TP Guidelines. It is crucial to recognize that the definition of related parties under UAE TP regulations differs from the criteria set out in International Accounting Standard (IAS) 24: Related Party Disclosures.

These differences impact how related parties are identified and treated under each framework. Consequently, businesses operating in the UAE should conduct a thorough assessment based on UAE TP rules rather than relying solely on financial statement disclosures or global TP policies.

Meaning of Related Party as per UAE Corporate Tax

In UAE Corporate Tax law, related parties include individuals or entities connected by ownership, control, or kinship up to the fourth degree, with 50% or more common ownership or control. This ensures arm’s length pricing in transactions, preventing tax avoidance. Accurate reporting is essential for compliance.

Key Disclosure Requirements

All Taxable Persons must complete this schedule in the TP disclosure form, if the total value of transactions with Related Parties, as recorded in the Financial Statements or at Market Value, exceeds AED 40 million.

Once this threshold is met, each transaction type exceeding AED 4 million must be disclosed, covering categories such as goods, services, intellectual property, assets, and liabilities. Intercompany dividends are excluded from this disclosure. Gross income (revenue) and expenses should be reported separately, aggregated by transaction type for each Related Party.

For each reportable transaction, companies must:

  • Ensure pricing aligns with the arm’s length principle (ALP).
  • Apply Transfer Pricing methods such as Comparable Uncontrolled Price (CUP), Resale Price, Cost-Plus, Transactional Net Margin, or Profit Split.
  • Provide the following details:
    • Related Party Name & Tax Residence
    • Transaction Type (goods, services, IP, etc.)
    • Gross Income/Expenses & Arm’s Length Value for comparison
    • Tax Adjustments, automatically calculated based on differences between gross income and arm’s length pricing, with FTA approval required for downward adjustments.

FAQs on Related Parties

A related party includes individuals and entities connected through kinship, ownership, or control. This can include family members up to the fourth degree, companies with 50% or more common ownership or control, permanent establishments (PEs), partners in unincorporated partnerships, and trust-related entities.

Related party transactions must be disclosed for tax compliance and transfer pricing regulations. They ensure transactions are conducted at arm’s length, preventing profit shifting and tax avoidance.

Control is the ability to influence another entity’s financial or operational decisions, which includes:

  • Holding 50% or more of voting rights
  • Controlling 50% or more of the Board of Directors
  • Receiving 50% or more of profits
  • Exercising significant influence over decision-making

Yes, transactions between related parties must comply with transfer pricing regulations, ensuring they reflect fair market value. However, specific exemptions may apply based on jurisdictional tax laws.

Businesses must maintain transfer pricing documentation, including:

  • TP Disclosure Form
  • A Local File detailing related party transactions
  • A Master File for global transfer pricing policies
  • A CBCR (Country-by-Country Report) for multinational enterprises (MNEs) meeting revenue thresholds

If transactions are not conducted at arm’s length, tax authorities may adjust taxable income, leading to penalties, additional tax liabilities, or increased scrutiny during audits.

Connected Persons

Transfer pricing (TP) rules apply to Connected Persons in the UAE primarily to prevent tax base erosion. The UAE’s definition of “connected persons,” as outlined in Article 36 of the Corporate Tax Law, is broader than the typical “Related Party” definition found in many other countries. It encompasses not only ownership and control but also close personal and familial ties.

This unique approach is likely due to the absence of personal income tax in the UAE. Without personal income tax, there’s a risk that business owners might try to reduce their corporate tax liability by artificially inflating payments to themselves or individuals connected to them. These excessive payments could be disguised as salaries, bonuses, or other expenses, effectively shifting profits from the taxable business to the individual, where they would escape taxation. Therefore, the FTA mandates a thorough review of transactions with connected persons to ensure they comply with the arm’s length principle and maintain the integrity of the corporate tax base.

Meaning of Connected Person as per UAE Corporate Tax

Connected persons refer to individuals or entities with a close relationship to a business, including owners, directors, partners, and their relatives, whose transactions may impact the company’s taxable income.

Disclosure Requirement

The Connected Persons Schedule in the TP disclosure form applies when total payments or benefits to a Connected Person and its Related Parties exceed AED 500,000. It covers key transactions under Article 36 of the Corporate Tax Law, requiring disclosure of the service type, payment amount, and market value. Any pricing deviations must be reported, with necessary adjustments as per FTA regulations.

Identification of Connected Persons

Article 36 (2)(a)

wner (An owner of a Taxable Person refers to any natural person who directly or indirectly holds an ownership interest in the Taxable Person or exercises control over it, including its operations)

Article 36(2)(b)

Director or Officer of the Taxable Person.

Article 36(2)(c)

A Related Party of any of the Persons referred to (a) & (b) mentioned above.

Article 36(4)

Where the Taxable Person is a partner in an Unincorporated Partnership, a Connected Person is any other partner in that same Unincorporated Partnership, and any Person that is a Related Party of that partner. 

Tax Deductibility of Payments to Related Parties and Connected Persons

Payments to Related Parties and Connected Persons in the UAE are tax-deductible if they meet key conditions:

– they must follow the Arm’s Length Principle; and
– be wholly for business purposes, and not be capital in nature (except specific cases like pension contributions).

A Need-Benefit Analysis is required, with proper documentation such as contracts, ledgers, and justifications. Covered payments include salaries, bonuses, pensions, loan interest, allowances, and other employment-related benefits.

FAQs on Connected Persons

Disclosure ensures compliance with Corporate Tax Law (Article 36) by verifying that transactions are conducted at market value, preventing tax avoidance and ensuring fair taxation.

Companies must disclose the transaction type, payment or benefit value, and market value equivalent, along with any necessary tax adjustments if pricing differs from market standards.

If the transaction price deviates from market value, the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) may adjust taxable income, potentially leading to additional tax liabilities or penalties.

Companies should maintain accurate documentation, conduct regular transfer pricing reviews, and seek professional tax guidance to ensure transactions meet compliance requirements.

TP Disclosure Form

The Federal Tax Authority (FTA) has recently revised the Corporate Tax (CT) return form, introducing key updates to the Transfer Pricing Disclosure Form (TP Disclosure Form). Under the new requirements, taxable persons must report transactions involving Related Parties and Connected Persons within the TP Disclosure Form.

As part of the UAE’s Corporate Tax framework, the TP Disclosure Form is a critical component of the CT return, ensuring transparency in related-party dealings and influencing the assessment of a taxable person’s liabilities.

It is important to note that the TP Disclosure Form is not a separate submission but an integrated section within the CT return. These additional disclosures are essential for compliance and form an integral part of the overall tax filing process.

The Transfer Pricing Disclosure Form (TP Form) is a mandatory component of the UAE Corporate Tax Return, requiring businesses to disclose transactions with Related Parties and Connected Persons. It ensures transparency in transfer pricing and helps the Federal Tax Authority assess tax liabilities.

Important Parameters for TP Disclosure Form

The UAE TP regulations apply to all UAE taxpayers, requiring them to

1. Arm’s Length Principal Compliance

  • All transactions with Related Parties must adhere to the arm’s length principle, regardless of disclosure requirements.
  • Payments or benefits to Connected Persons are deductible only if they align with Market Value.

2. Thresholds for Reporting

  • RPT Schedule: Required if the aggregate value of transactions with Related Parties exceeds AED 40 million.
  • If the primary threshold is exceeded, individual transaction categories exceeding AED 4 million must also be disclosed.
  • CP Schedule: Required if transactions with at least one Connected Person (including their related parties) exceed AED 500,000.
  • If the threshold is crossed, any payment or benefit per CP exceeding AED 500,000 must be disclosed.

3. TP Adjustments & Compliance

  • If transactions are not recorded at arm’s length in the Financial Statements, a TP adjustment may be required.
  • All manual adjustments must be reported.

4. Applicability of TP Regulations

  • UAE taxpayers must comply irrespective of CT grouping status, Free Trade Zone location, or applicable tax rate.
  • TP disclosure is required if Related Party transactions exceed AED 40 million.
  • Individual transaction categories (e.g., goods, services, interest) exceeding AED 4 million must be reported.
  • Payments or benefits to Connected Persons must be reported if they exceed AED 500,000.

5. Exemptions & Special Cases

  • Small Business Relief entities are exempt from TP documentation.
  • Qualifying Free Zone Entities must adhere to the arm’s length principle and maintain relevant supporting documentation.

FAQs on the Transfer Pricing (TP) Disclosure Form

The TP Disclosure Form serves as a critical component of the UAE Corporate Tax regime, reinforcing compliance with the arm’s length principle. It mandates transparency in intra-group transactions and ensures that taxable persons appropriately document their related party dealings, preventing profit shifting and tax base erosion.

A taxable person must complete the TP Disclosure Form if total transactions with Related Parties exceed AED 40 million or if individual transaction categories—such as goods, services, or financial transactions—exceed AED 4 million each. Additionally, payments or benefits to Connected Persons must be disclosed if they surpass AED 500,000 per recipient.

The information disclosed in the TP Disclosure Form provides the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) with insights into potential transfer pricing risks. Businesses with significant related party transactions may face increased scrutiny, particularly if pricing practices deviate from the arm’s length principle or if insufficient economic substance is demonstrated.

Although free zone entities may benefit from a 0% corporate tax rate on qualifying income, they are still required to comply with transfer pricing regulations. This includes preparing adequate documentation to substantiate that transactions with Related Parties and Connected Persons adhere to the arm’s length principle, ensuring compliance with UAE tax laws.

The TP Disclosure Form requires more than just transaction-level disclosures; it necessitates economic justification for the pricing of intercompany transactions. Entities must ensure that their pricing methodologies align with OECD guidelines and that they have supporting documentation to withstand potential tax authority inquiries.

Misreporting or failure to disclose relevant transactions can lead to significant penalties, ranging from financial fines to potential tax audits and adjustments. Entities that fail to comply with TP documentation requirements may also face increased scrutiny from the FTA, potentially impacting their tax positions and overall corporate governance standing.

Local File

Introductory Para

The Local File is a crucial part of UAE’s transfer pricing documentation, outlining a taxpayer’s-controlled transactions for a specific tax period. Businesses must prepare it if their group revenue exceeds AED 3.15 billion or their taxable revenue surpasses AED 200 million. It must include details about the local entity, key controlled transactions, and relevant financial data. As per Ministerial Decision No. 97 of 2023 and UAE TP guidelines, certain transactions require documentation to comply with the Arm’s Length Principle. These include dealings with non-residents, exempt persons, and entities under different corporate tax rates (e.g., Qualifying Free Zone Persons).

The Local File contains key details for transfer pricing analysis, specifically covering material transactions between a local affiliate and its associated enterprises across different jurisdictions, ensuring compliance with the jurisdiction’s tax regulations.

The Local File plays a crucial role in the UAE’s transfer pricing documentation framework. It provides comprehensive details on a taxpayer’s-controlled transactions during a specific tax period. Businesses operating in the UAE must prepare and maintain a Local File if they meet either of the following criteria; Even if an entity does not meet the Local File threshold, it must still maintain sufficient records to justify that transactions with Related Parties or Connected Persons comply with the Arm’s Length Principle.

  • The total consolidated group revenue in the relevant tax period is AED 3.15 billion or more.
  • The taxable person’s revenue in the relevant tax period is AED 200 million or more.
The Local File must include key details, such as:
  • Information about the local entity.
  • Detailed information on each material category of controlled transactions in which the entity is involved, including a functional analysis of each, an indication of the most appropriate Transfer Pricing method (including which party is selected as the ‘tested party’) and the application of that method
  • Relevant financial data.

However, Ministerial Decision No. 97 of 2023 and the UAE transfer pricing guidelines (CTGTP1) define specific circumstances where a Taxable Person must document certain controlled transactions in the Local File.

Importance of Maintaining Transfer Pricing Documentation

Maintaining a Master File and Local File in the UAE is crucial for businesses to ensure compliance with tax regulations and mitigate risks. Proper documentation helps in managing transfer pricing risks, avoiding disputes and litigation, and preventing penalties for non-compliance. It also supports the Arm’s Length Principle (ALP) compliance, facilitates Advance Pricing Agreements (APAs), and enhances the company’s credibility with the Federal Tax Authority (FTA).

FAQs on Local File

A Local File is a detailed report that provides information on a taxpayer’s-controlled transactions with related parties, ensuring compliance with transfer pricing regulations in the UAE.

The Local File must contain details about the local entity, a breakdown of significant controlled transactions, functional analysis, method used to benchmark the transaction, benchmarking analysis etc. and relevant financial data to demonstrate adherence to the Arm’s Length Principle.

Proper documentation ensures compliance with UAE tax laws, mitigates risks, prevents disputes, avoids penalties, and demonstrates adherence to the Arm’s Length Principle (ALP) before the Federal Tax Authority (FTA).

A Local File focuses on transaction-level details for a specific jurisdiction, while a Master File provides a broader overview of the multinational group’s global business structure, transfer pricing policies, and financials.

Failure to maintain a Local File may lead to non-compliance penalties, tax audits, disputes, and potential transfer pricing adjustments imposed by the FTA.

Businesses that fail to comply with transfer pricing rules may face penalties ranging from AED 10,000 to AED 100,000.

Masterfile

Introductory Para

The Master File is a comprehensive document that provides an overview of a multinational enterprise (MNE) group’s global operations, transfer pricing policies, management of intangible assets, financial activities, and income allocation. It places these practices within the broader economic, legal, and regulatory framework. While it should offer sufficient detail, the OECD guidelines emphasize that exhaustive information is not required. Businesses should exercise sound judgment when preparing the Master File, and expert guidance can help ensure accuracy and compliance.

The Master File is a key Transfer Pricing (TP) document that offers a high-level overview of an MNE Group’s global business operation, transfer pricing policies, key value drivers, and the allocation of income and economic activity across jurisdictions.

Master File Requirements in the UAE

As per the OECD’s BEPS Action Plan 13, the Master File and Local File are key components of transfer pricing documentation. The UAE follows this framework, requiring taxable persons to prepare, maintain, and submit these files.

Who Must Maintain Master & Local Files?

Taxable persons in the UAE must maintain these files if:

  • They are part of an MNE Group with consolidated revenue of AED 3.15 billion or more in the relevant tax period.
  • Their own revenue in the relevant tax period is AED 200 million or more.
  • Businesses that fail to comply with transfer pricing rules may face penalties ranging from AED 10,000 to AED 100,000.

Purpose of Maintain Transfer Pricing Documentation?

Proper documentation ensures:

  • Compliance with UAE tax regulations.
  • Better risk management.
  • Avoidance of transfer pricing disputes and penalties.
  • Compliance with the Arm’s Length Principle (ALP).
  • Support for Advance Pricing Agreements (APAs).
  • A strong reputation with the FTA.

FAQs on Master File

The Master File provides a global overview of your MNE, while the Local File focuses on specific transactions within the UAE jurisdiction. Both files are required for comprehensive transfer pricing documentation. The Master File sets the context, and the Local File provides detailed analysis of local transactions.”

The Master File should be updated annually to reflect any significant changes in your MNE’s operations or transfer pricing policies.

The arm’s length principle requires that transactions between related parties should be conducted under the same conditions as transactions between independent parties. The Master file helps demonstrate compliance by providing an overview of the MNEs global operations, and transfer pricing policies, and showing that these policies result in arm’s length outcomes.

Country by Country Reporting (CbCR)

The UAE Ministry of Finance introduced Country-by-Country Reporting (CbCR) under Cabinet Resolution No. 32 of 2019 to enhance tax transparency and align with OECD’s BEPS Action Plan 13. Multinational enterprise (MNE) groups with consolidated revenues of AED 3.15 billion or more in the preceding fiscal year must comply with CbCr requirements. The Ultimate Parent Entity (UPE) or a Constituent Entity based in the UAE must file a CbC notification and submit a detailed report within 12 months of the fiscal year-end, covering revenues, profits, taxes paid, assets, and employees across jurisdictions. Non-compliance can lead to significant penalties imposed by UAE authorities.

CbCR summarizes a multinational group’s income allocation, taxes paid, and economic activities across jurisdictions. It lists constituent entities, their tax residency, and business activities. The report must be filed with the FTA, specifying the ultimate parent entity.

Country-by-Country Reporting (CbCR) in the UAE

Under Cabinet Resolution No. 44 of 2020, CbCR requirements apply if an entity is the Ultimate Parent Company of an MNE Group in the UAE and the Group’s consolidated revenue meets or exceeds AED 3.15 billion in the prior financial year.

CbCR Notification:

The Ultimate Parent Entity must inform the competent authority of its reporting status by the last day of the Group’s fiscal year. Non-compliance may result in an administrative penalty of AED 1,000,000, with an additional AED 10,000 per day for continued failure (up to AED 250,000).

CbC Reporting:

The Ultimate Parent Entity must submit the CbC Report to the Ministry of Finance (MoF) within 12 months from the financial year-end.

Penalties will be served to those who fail to comply with the CbCR requirements. Such penalties are as follows:

  • An administrative fine of up to AED 1,000,000 will be given to those who failed to file the CbCR on time (plus AED 10,000 for each day of failure to submit. The fine could be up to AED 250,000.)
  • Failure to provide complete and accurate information in the CbCR. An administrative fine of no less than AED 50,000 and not exceeding AED 500,000 is applicable will be given to those who failed to provide complete and accurate information in the CbCR.
  • Failure to maintain information and documentation for five years is subject to a fine of AED 100,000.
  • Failure to provide any other information requested is subject to a fine of AED 100,000

FAQs on CbCR

CbCR is part of the OECD’s Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) Action Plan 13, designed to enhance tax transparency by requiring MNE groups to disclose jurisdiction-wise revenue, taxes paid, and economic substance. The UAE, in alignment with global standards, mandates CbCR compliance to prevent tax avoidance and ensure fair taxation.

Entities qualifying under the CbCR threshold must (i) submit a notification to the Ministry of Finance confirming their reporting status and (ii) file the full CbC Report within 12 months from the end of the fiscal year. Failure to meet these obligations results in significant financial penalties.

An MNE Group must comply if (i) the Ultimate Parent Entity (UPE) is a tax resident in the UAE and (ii) the group’s consolidated revenue meets or exceeds AED 3.15 billion in the preceding financial year. The applicability extends to any UAE-based constituent entity if the UPE is not reporting in its tax jurisdiction.

CbCR disclosures provide tax authorities with jurisdictional insight into an MNE’s global profit allocation and related-party transactions, increasing scrutiny over transfer pricing structures. Misalignment between income distribution and economic substance may trigger tax audits or adjustments.

Non-compliance results in severe penalties, including a base fine of AED 1,000,000, with an additional AED 10,000 per day of continued failure (up to a maximum of AED 250,000). Furthermore, failure to provide accurate data can lead to reputational risks, increased audit exposure, and potential reallocation of taxable income.

MNEs must ensure accurate financial consolidation, validate intercompany transaction consistency, and align transfer pricing documentation with OECD guidelines. Implementing internal governance mechanisms and leveraging technology solutions for real-time compliance tracking can mitigate reporting risks.
