How to obtain Tax Residency in the UAE?
There are 3 ways you can obtain tax residence in the UAE:
- Through an employment contract.

The most popular way to become resident of the UAE, is to register a free zone (FZ) company. This option allows the expatriate shareholders and employees of the company to apply for residency status.
