What is Qualifying Income?

Created by Mohamed Mamdouh, Modified on Tue, 6 Oct at 2:39 PM by Mohamed Mamdouh

The determination of qualifying income depends on the nature of transactions and the parties involved.


  1. Transaction with another Free Zone person: If your business transactions are with another business entity within the same Free Zone, the income generated from these transactions can be considered as qualifying income.
  2. Transaction with a non-Free Zone person: If your business transactions are with an entity outside the Free Zone, the income from these transactions may not be considered as qualifying income.
  3. Income from all other transactions: All other income, provided they satisfy the de minimis requirements, can be considered as qualifying income.
