We hope you can join us for the next session of our event series “Global mobility – A legal & tax journey for private clients” on 11 December 2024. This comprehensive series is particularly tailored to the needs and interests of family-owned businesses and private clients.

In this session we’ll be examining the legal and tax frameworks for relocating to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). As a first in its history, the UAE introduced federal corporate tax in June 2023. We will provide an introduction to this and highlight the tax implications associated with relocating there from a German perspective. We will also focus on individual legal issues relating to wealth and succession planning. The event will be rounded off with some practical aspects of residence, work permits and labour law in the UAE.
