What do you need to know?

UAE is tax free country, however as US citizen you must declare your income world-wide. You'll have a foreign earned income exclusion of $ 87k or so plus housing exclusion if eligible, check IRS pub. 54 and try to fill out form 2555 as an exercise first and see if you may qualify under one of the 2 tests on that form.

Good luck,
