JAXA Chartered Accountants is an UAE-based accounting firm specializing in high-quality bookkeeping, accounting, auditing, and tax preparation services.

Business entities face the double taxation issue during the import-export procedure. The thought of solving this task gave rise to a tax residence certificate, also known as a tax domicile certificate. This certificate is called a residence certificate, as it acts as proof of residence. It is beneficial for both individuals and business organizations to obtain this certificate. For business purposes, the UAE Government has started issuing this certificate to take advantage of the Double Tax Treaty (DTT) and convert the threat into a business opportunity. Before proceeding with the procedures, and eligibility criteria, first, let’s understand what a double tax treaty means.

Double Tax Treaty (DTT)

 

A double tax treaty is an agreement signed between two countries to avoid the tax they must pay during the import-export process while carrying out business activities.  Many countries worldwide have entered into this agreement with their business countries to prevent a range of taxes like import-export, income, inheritance, value-added, etc. So, we can consider the domicile or tax residence certificate as a double tax avoidance agreement (DTAA).
