Shuraatax21 May, 2025Finance

Paying tax on the same income in two different countries can be a big burden for many people, especially for international investors and expatriates. This situation is known as double taxation. To help avoid this, countries around the world sign agreements called Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements (DTAA). These agreements make sure that individuals and businesses don’t have to pay tax twice on the same income. The UAE has signed DTAAs with many countries to support global trade, attract foreign investment, and show its strong commitment to fair and transparent tax practices.
