Industries We Support with R&D Tax Credits
Research and development tax relief applies differently across sectors.

This page outlines industry-specific R&D activities, typical challenges, and how R&D tax relief may apply. For tailored support, see our R&D tax consultant services and our guide on how R&D tax credits work.
Each industry faces distinct technical and regulatory expectations from UAE Federal Tax Authority. Explore each sector below for how R&D tax credits apply, common eligible costs, and cross-industry considerations such as documentation, staff costs, and the R&D tax claim process.
