The UAE’s network of double taxation treaties lets residents — corporate and individual — claim reduced withholding tax on foreign dividends, interest, royalties and other income. The key that opens those treaties is the Tax Residency Certificate issued by the FTA, and applications are judged on evidence: physical presence, substance, audited financials, tenancy and more, depending on the applicant.
Taxspire manages TRC applications end to end. We check eligibility honestly before you pay government fees, assemble the evidence file to the standard the FTA applies, submit and track the application, and advise on using the certificate with foreign payers — including the treaty forms many jurisdictions require alongside it.

How it works
Eligibility check
We test your facts against the criteria for your applicant type and treaty.
Evidence build
The supporting file is assembled to application standard.
Submission
We file with the FTA and handle any queries.
Delivery
Certificate issued; we brief you on deploying it with the foreign payer.
What we’ll need from you
Expected timeline
A complete application typically takes 2–4 weeks including FTA processing. Start well before the foreign payment date — certificates are not issued retroactively on your payer’s schedule.
Timelines depend on document readiness and authority processing; we confirm a schedule before work begins.
