Transfer Pricing: The Nexus Trap

Related Party Compliance in 2025/26

The Audit Focus

The FTA has signaled that **Transfer Pricing (TP)** will be the primary lever for revenue protection in the upcoming audit cycles. Any transaction between 'Connected Persons' must adhere to the **Arm's Length Principle**.

Primary Penalty

AED 50,000

Per instance of missing Master File documentation.

Secondary Penalty

Incremental %

Monthly interest on underpaid tax due to TP adjustments.

Forensic Nexus Mapping

Most conglomerates fail not because they are non-compliant, but because their **ERP systems lack the 'Nexus Layer'** required to tag related-party transfers automatically. Arakan solves this by building a secondary forensic ledger in volatile memory.
