In 2025, business taxes remain both a challenge and a catalyst for industry innovation. Globally, taxation laws have evolved as governments align with OECD tax frameworks, especially the 15% minimum tax rate for multinational enterprises under Pillar Two reforms. Across developed markets, businesses face strict documentation for transfer pricing, economic substance, and anti-base erosion. In the Middle East Asian region, the impact of fiscal policy is amplified by economic diversification and fiscal transparency priorities. The UAE has introduced a competitive 9% corporate income tax for profits over AED 375,000, and applies a 0% rate below this threshold—extending special incentives to free zone entities that meet compliance standards. The new perception of auditing companies, especially in the context of business taxes, is technology-driven and client-centric. Today’s auditing companies offer AI-enabled support for tax compliance, predictive analytics for risk mitigation, and holistic consulting to help businesses thrive in shifting regulatory environments.
