The new Competition Law (effective March 31, 2025) introduces mandatory merger control for transactions meeting specific thresholds: total annual sales >AED300M or market share >40%. Parties must file 90 days before completion, with potential 45-day extensions. Crucially, failure to issue a decision results in automatic rejection, requiring careful planning and expert guidance.
Technology & AI (37% of Q1 2025 domestic deals), Healthcare & Life Sciences, Renewable Energy, Financial Services (70 deals/$1.6B in H1 2025), Oil & Gas ($9B in 2024), and Real Estate are the most active sectors. These align with UAE’s economic diversification goals and strategic initiatives.
Key approvals include: Ministry of Economy (competition clearance), Securities and Commodities Authority (public companies), Central Bank (financial institutions), Department of Economic Development (license amendments), and sector-specific authorities. Requirements vary by transaction type, size, and industry sector.
The 9% federal corporate tax on business profits exceeding AED375,000 significantly impacts deal structuring, valuation, and post-transaction planning. It requires specialist tax advice for optimization, affects due diligence procedures, and influences buyer/seller negotiations on tax liabilities and indemnifications.
Transaction timelines vary based on complexity, regulatory requirements, and deal size. Simple transactions may take 3-6 months, while complex deals requiring regulatory approvals can take 6-12 months or longer. The new Competition Law’s 90-day review period (plus potential 45-day extension) adds to timing considerations for qualifying transactions.
Yes, the Commercial Companies Law (2021) eliminated the “49/51 rule” allowing 100% foreign ownership in most sectors. This significantly simplifies M&A transactions and makes UAE targets more attractive to international buyers. However, certain strategic sectors may still have restrictions requiring careful review.
