Saving millions per year in Dubai?
Currently in Dubai 🇦🇪 and not just for the views.
If you’re running your business remotely, especially online, setting up operations in a place like Dubai could be a smart financial move.
Back home in NZ, we get taxed multiple times before a dollar hits our account:
- 15% GST on most sales
- Then 28% company tax on profits
- Then another slice taken off your personal income (up to 39%) when you draw from the company
- Not including PAYE if you have staff or additional levies like ACC
By the time it’s all said and done, you’re giving away nearly half your earnings, if not more.
Meanwhile, Dubai offers:
0% personal income tax
0% tax on capital gains
9% corporate tax (on earnings over 350K AED)
For me personally, I pay 7 figures in tax each year in NZ. If I can legally reduce that by 80-90% by setting up here, that’s life-changing. Especially since Dubai is modern, great networking potential and has a high quality of living.
This is the kind of stuff most people never even consider. But when you start getting sales, wealth preservation becomes just as important as wealth generation.
