How to Link Juridical Person Tax Agent to Taxable Person

Below are the steps and instructions that are to be followed by the entities while linking the Juridical Person Tax agent to the Taxable Person on the EmaraTax portal. These instructions must be followed for a smooth process and successfully linking the person. The steps include the following:

• Firstly, the person will have to log in to the EmaraTax account via the EmaraTax portal using the credentials or by using the UAE pass if available. In case the person does not have an account on the EmaraTax portal, then the account can be created by clicking on the “Sign Up” button on the portal. It is normal to forget the login credentials and password regarding the EmaraTax account; no issues, you can click on the “Forgot Password” to reset the password and the credentials.

• Once the person logs in, he might see a “Taxable Person Tile,” click on the “View” option displayed on the tile, and go to the “Account Access” tile. There the person might come across a list of linked users with the taxable person, which also displays the type and status of the linked person.
• Click on the “Add User” option displayed on the top right of the list displayed. After that, the person must select the “Juridical Person Tax Agent” option from the drop-down option shown along with the “User Type” option.
• After clicking on the option, the person shall search for the Juridical Person Tax Agent with the J-TAAN number. Once the required Juridical Person is selected, the details of the person will be automatically filled in the fields.
• Click on the “Add” options from the Tax Types option below, where the details of the Tax Activities are also included for which the Juridical Person Tax agent has been authorized. In the same area, the person can set the time period during which the Juridical Person Tax Agent can have access to the data.
• Then click on the “Add” button to save the details.
• After clicking on the add button, the person shall see a window displaying that the application has been submitted successfully. After the submission of the application, the person will get a reference number, which can be used for any of the future tax purposes. Once the application is accepted by the Juridical Person Tax Agent, the linking process is completed. The status of the process can be checked on the portal.
