Transfer Pricing Benchmarking in UAE

With the introduction of the UAE Corporate Tax Law, businesses in the UAE are facing a new set of regulatory requirements, particularly concerning transfer pricing. To help businesses navigate these changes and maintain compliance, Alberts Chartered Accountants offers comprehensive benchmarking studies designed to ensure compliance while optimizing tax positions.

What is a Benchmarking Study?

A benchmarking study is a critical component of transfer pricing analysis. It involves identifying and evaluating comparable market transactions to determine arm’s length pricing for related-party transactions. This study forms the foundation for demonstrating that your business’s intercompany transactions are conducted in accordance with UAE Corporate Tax Law and OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines.

Why is Benchmarking Study Essential?

The UAE Corporate Tax Law mandates that companies must comply with transfer pricing regulations, which require intercompany transactions to reflect fair market value. A well-executed benchmarking study can help your business:

Avoid Compliance Risks

Demonstrate compliance with UAE’s transfer pricing regulations and avoid potential penalties or tax adjustments.
