What is Economic Substance Regulation (ESR)?

Economic Substance Regulation (ESR) is a regulatory framework introduced in the UAE to align with global efforts to combat tax avoidance and profit shifting. Implemented in January 2019, ESR mandates that entities engaged in specific business activities must demonstrate substantial economic activity within the UAE, rather than simply existing as a shell or base for tax benefits.
