Transfer Pricing Services in UAE
Transfer pricing refers to the pricing of goods, services, or intangible assets transferred between entities within the same multinational enterprise group. The goal is to establish fair and arm's length prices for these transactions, ensuring that profits are appropriately attributed to each jurisdiction where the business operates. This helps prevent tax evasion and ensures that each country receives its fair share of taxes.
