An estimate, not advice
These are estimates, not tax, legal or immigration advice. They only hold if you really become a tax resident of the UAE and stop being a tax resident of your country; leaving is not automatic and each country has its own rules (see “Before you leave”). Dubai costs money too (see “What it costs on the Dubai side”).
Labels, notes, quotes and source titles taken from the official data are shown in English, as published.

Before you leave
Paying no tax in Dubai only works if your old country agrees that you have left.
