Transfer Pricing Documentation UAE
Documentation of Transfer Pricing in the UAE – MSZ's Technical Assistance
With the introduction of Corporate Tax in the UAE, Transfer Pricing (TP) rules became one of the key areas of compliance for businesses that conduct cross-border and related-party transactions. According to the UAE Federal Tax Authority (FTA), entities are currently mandated to uphold adequate Transfer Pricing documentation to support the arm's length character of their transactions and prevent tax uncertainties.
At MSZ, we offer Transfer Pricing documentation specifically designed to satisfy FTA demands. Our professional staff will make sure that your company is in full compliance and ready for any examination by tax officials.

If you buy, sell, or share costs with any company linked to yours, even overseas, then yes.
Think of it as three parts: the big global picture (Master File), your local UAE deals (Local File), and a simple form you submit with your tax return.
The tax authority can recalculate your profits and give you a higher tax bill, plus penalties.
We look up what unrelated companies are charging for similar things- it's like checking market prices to prove you're not getting a special deal.
