Navigating the Transition: From Tax Head in the Industry to Tax Advisory in the UAE

With the launch of UAE corporate tax on June 1st, 2023, there is a significant demand for thousands of tax advisors, especially those in senior positions.

Hany Elnaggar, a highly qualified tax professional from Egypt, began his career in Saudi Arabia, back in 2013.

He gained valuable experience working with various multinational corporations in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region, heading their tax teams.

Recently, he made a transition to WTS Dhruva Consultants, a leading tax advisory firm.

We asked Hany about his journey from being a tax head in the industry to becoming a tax advisor and how his experience has differed in this new role.
