Staying outside the UAE for 180+ days does NOT automatically cancel your IFZA visa. The visa remains legally active — AED 1,500 fee still applies. What actually happens, the full closure sequence, and what to do before closing your IFZA company.
If your UAE business revenue fell below AED 187,500 in any 12-month period, you were required to apply for VAT deregistration within 20 business days. Missing that deadline — even if you only apply later during license cancellation — triggers an FTA penalty.
The exact UAE Corporate Tax computation sequence — from accounting income to CT payable. Exempt income, non-deductible expenditure, interest disallowance order (Art 34→31→30), loss relief, and FTC. With worked example.
IFZA dependent visa cancellation explained step by step — exact documents required, UAE Pass verification, parallel liquidation process, and what IFZA actually needs from sponsors.
