Frequently Asked Questions (Canada Investors)
Official answers verified with UAE statutory law and bilateral agreements
Do Canadian citizens have to pay tax in Canada on Dubai rental property?
Canadian tax residents are taxed by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) on worldwide income. However, under the Canada-UAE Tax Treaty, you can claim foreign tax credits. If you structure your move to become a non-resident of Canada for tax purposes, your Dubai rental income and capital gains are subject to 0% tax in both the UAE and Canada.

Yes. Dubai real estate law permits 100% remote purchase of off-plan property.
