Accounting services in Dubai

Clear books. Confident decisions.

Accurate books, on-time tax filings and fewer compliance risks are what our accounting services are built to deliver. We work with start-ups, SMEs and growing groups across the GCC, aligned with UAE regulations and international standards.

Finance support

Know where the business stands

Clean finances do more than keep regulators happy. They help you price correctly, plan cash flow, secure bank finance and make decisions based on real numbers rather than guesswork.

Because our team also works across HR, IT and PR, we see how your finances connect to the rest of the business.

  • Bookkeeping

    Record transactions, reconcile bank accounts and keep records current.

  • Accounting and reporting

    Monthly and annual management accounts, profit and loss statements and balance sheets.

  • Financial planning

    Budgets, cash-flow forecasts and practical growth plans.

  • Risk management

    Identify financial and operational risks and put controls in place.

  • Audit support

    Prepare records and schedules so your external audit runs smoothly.

VAT registration

Get VAT right from day one

VAT in the UAE has applied at a standard rate of 5% since 1 January 2018 and is managed by the Federal Tax Authority through EmaraTax. Registration is mandatory when taxable supplies and imports exceed AED 375,000 in the previous 12 months, or are expected to exceed that amount in the next 30 days. Businesses above AED 187,500 can register voluntarily.

After registration, we can prepare and file your VAT returns so deadlines are not missed.

  1. 01

    Check

    Confirm whether registration is mandatory or voluntary registration makes sense.

  2. 02

    Prepare

    Gather the trade licence, owner IDs, turnover records and other required documents.

  3. 03

    Submit

    File the application and follow up until you receive your Tax Registration Number.

  4. 04

    Set up

    Put invoicing and record-keeping in place for accurate future returns.

AML compliance

Practical controls for regulated businesses

Many UAE businesses have duties under the country's anti-money laundering framework, including sectors such as real estate, precious metals dealing, accounting and corporate services. Those duties can include registration on the goAML platform.

  • Assess

    Establish whether AML rules apply to your business.

  • Document

    Write an AML policy and customer due diligence procedures.

  • Train

    Help staff spot and report suspicious activity.

  • Evidence

    Keep the records regulators expect during an inspection.

GCC compliance

Keep pace with changing requirements

Each GCC country has its own requirements, and rules change often. We review your current position, flag gaps and give you a clear plan to close them before a missed filing or outdated policy leads to fines or a blocked licence renewal.
