Accounting Services
Clean, compliant books are the foundation of every UAE business — and now a legal requirement under the Corporate Tax and VAT regimes. We maintain your records accurately and on time, keep you audit-ready, and give you numbers you can actually run the business on — at a fixed fee agreed before we start.
Why it matters
Bookkeeping is no longer optional housekeeping — in the UAE it is a legal obligation. Since the introduction of VAT in 2018 and Corporate Tax in 2023, every business is expected to maintain proper, contemporaneous accounting records and to be able to produce them on request.
Under Federal Decree-Law No. 32 of 2021 on Commercial Companies, companies must keep accounting records that show their transactions and accurately reflect their financial position, and retain them for at least five years from the end of the financial year (Article 26).
Under Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022 on Corporate Tax, taxable persons must prepare financial statements and maintain records and documents supporting them — generally for seven years after the relevant tax period — so the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) can verify taxable income.
Under Federal Decree-Law No. 8 of 2017 on VAT (and its Executive Regulations), registered businesses must keep full books of account, tax invoices and related records to support every VAT return they file.
Beyond compliance, accurate books are simply how you run the company well: you see real margins, manage cash, satisfy banks and investors, and walk into an audit or an FTA review with nothing to fear. Poor records, by contrast, expose you to administrative penalties, rejected input VAT, and disputes you can't defend.
What's involved
“Bookkeeping” is shorthand for a set of disciplined, repeatable tasks. Here are the components we maintain so your accounts are complete, reconciled and ready to report.
A structured, IFRS-aligned chart tailored to your activity, so every transaction lands in the right place from day one.
Recording and classifying every sale, purchase, expense and adjustment into the ledger that drives your financials.
Tracking what you owe and what's owed to you — supplier bills, customer invoices, ageing and follow-up.
Matching ledger balances to bank statements every period so your cash position is accurate and trustworthy.
Capturing input and output VAT correctly, with compliant tax invoices, ready to support each FTA return.
Maintaining your asset register and applying depreciation consistently in line with policy and IFRS.
Booking salaries, WPS payments, end-of-service provisions, prepayments and accruals so each period is complete.
Closing the books each month or quarter and producing the trial balance, P&L, balance sheet and cash flow.
Our services
Whether you need a steady monthly rhythm, a full outsourced finance function, or a rescue on neglected books, we have a defined service for it.
A fixed, recurring cycle — monthly, quarterly or annually — where we record transactions, reconcile accounts, close the period and deliver management accounts on a predictable schedule. Ideal for businesses that want their books kept current without hiring in-house, with reliable numbers at each period end and no year-end scramble.
Hand the entire bookkeeping and accounting function to us as your dedicated, off-site finance team. We run your day-to-day accounting, payables and receivables, reconciliations and reporting on your systems — giving you a full back office at a fraction of the cost of an internal department, scaling up or down as you grow.
Months or years behind? We reconstruct and bring your books fully up to date — gathering source documents, posting the missing transactions, reconciling every account and resolving gaps. The result is a clean, continuous record that meets Corporate Tax and VAT obligations and removes the risk of penalties for incomplete filings.
We prepare complete, IFRS-compliant financial statements — statement of financial position, profit & loss, cash flow and notes — ready for management, banks, shareholders, auditors and the FTA. Properly drawn statements support your Corporate Tax return, strengthen finance and investor conversations, and make the external audit faster and cheaper.
A focused health-check of your existing books before an audit, tax filing, transaction or system migration. We review balances, test reconciliations, correct misclassifications and clear out errors and duplicates — leaving you with accurate, defensible accounts and a short list of fixes to keep them that way.
How we work
A defined, repeatable process — so you always know what's happening to your books and what comes next, with a fixed fee agreed before we start.
We review your business, current records, systems and reporting needs, then agree the scope, cycle and a fixed, all-inclusive fee.
We configure or align your chart of accounts and software, connect bank feeds, and set a simple way for you to share documents securely.
Each period we post transactions, manage payables and receivables, capture VAT correctly, and reconcile bank, cash and control accounts.
We close the books and deliver your management accounts — P&L, balance sheet and cash flow — with a short commentary on what the numbers mean.
We keep you VAT- and Corporate-Tax-ready, retain records per UAE law, and hand auditors clean, supported statements at year end.
