When Do You Need a Corporate Tax Registration Amendment?
Change in business name or trade name
Change in ownership or shareholders
Change of business address
Update in main business activities
Change in legal structure or authorized signatories
Documents by Type of Change
Name change: Your updated trade licence.
Ownership or shareholders: Updated trade licence, memorandum of association or share transfer documents, and ID copies of new owners.
Address: Your updated trade licence or lease agreement.
Main activity: A trade licence showing the new activity.
Legal structure or signatories: Your updated licence and proof of authority, such as a power of attorney or board resolution.
The FTA may ask for more, so we confirm the exact list before we submit.
What Happens If You Do Not Update?
Records that do not match: Your FTA registration no longer matches your trade licence and other records, which can slow other FTA services.
Penalties: Failing to notify changes on time can lead to administrative penalties. Penalty rules were updated by Cabinet Decision No. 129 of 2025.
Missed communication: FTA notices may go to an old address or contact.

How does the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) handle applications for tax registration amendments

Checking your submitted details and documents on the EmaraTax portal
Requesting more information if needed
Approving or rejecting the amendment and notifying you by email and portal updates
Letting you track your application status online
This process helps keep your business tax records accurate and compliant.
How long do I have to report a change to my corporate tax registration?
Changes must be reported within 20 business days to avoid penalties. We recommend starting as soon as the change is made.
Do I need to amend my registration when my trade licence is renewed?
Only if the renewal changes details held on your FTA registration, such as your name, address, activity, owners or signatories. A routine renewal with no changes does not need an amendment.
Does this also update my VAT registration?
No. VAT registration details are amended separately through your VAT account. If your business is registered for both, we can update both for you.
How long does the FTA take to approve an amendment?
It depends on the type of change and how complete your documents are. The FTA reviews the application on EmaraTax and may ask for more information. We track it and reply for you.
