FTA’s Professionals Qualification Initiative to Enhance UAE Tax System Efficiency

As part of its efforts to pursue excellence and continuously develop human capital, the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) has launched the Tax Professionals Qualification Initiative.

This ambitious programme aims to train a new generation of qualified tax experts, aligning with the Authority’s vision to invest in human capital and foster a work environment that encourages lifelong learning and development.

Designed to enhance the efficiency of the tax system and support the Authority’s strategy, the initiative is one of the FTA’s strategic projects aimed at strengthening the UAE tax sector.

It seeks to supply skilled professionals qualified to work in tax administration and to recruit top talents from university students and graduates.

Moreover, the initiative aims to improve performance, encourage continuous learning among Tax Agents, and enhance the efficiency of tax professionals. The Authority also aspires to raise tax awareness among community members through this initiative.

Khalid Al Bustani, Director General of the FTA, stated: “Launching the Tax Professionals Qualification Initiative aims to enhance the Federal Tax Authority’s pioneering role in developing talent and human resources in the UAE, training them to efficiently and effectively manage tax systems.

We strive to achieve these objectives by providing specialised and accredited training programmes rooted in best practices and international standards, in addition to offering advanced and continuous tax education.”

The initiative targets several groups, including new and current employees of the Federal Tax Authority, university students and graduates from government universities and tax specialists.
