UAE Tax Residency Certificate (TRC)

Coordinated facilitation of TRC applications under domestic and treaty bases.

The UAE Tax Residency Certificate, issued by the Federal Tax Authority, confirms residency for domestic tax purposes or for the application of a Double Tax Treaty. Eligibility rests on a combination of physical presence and substantive connection to the UAE, with thresholds that differ by basis.

Who it suits

  • Individuals reorganising tax residency for a clean exit from a previous jurisdiction
  • Founders aligning personal residency with the seat of a UAE company
  • Corporates demonstrating substantive UAE management
  • Family principals coordinating treaty positions across jurisdictions

Visa Boutique does not perform tax analysis. The technical work — eligibility assessment, treaty interpretation, documentary review, and the filing itself — is carried out by a registered tax advisor with whom we coordinate. Our role is to assemble the file, manage the documentation flow, introduce the right advisor, and keep the process on a calendar agreed with the principal.
