Corporate Services
I
Tax
Corporate Tax, VAT, Excise and the move to e-invoicing.
Registration, returns, reliefs and audit defence — handled by an FTA-approved tax agency that can represent you directly before the Authority.
TAX
Corporate Tax
Registered, computed, filed, and the relief you are entitled to actually claimed.
UAE Corporate Tax is 9% on taxable income above AED 375,000 and 0% at or below it — but the money is won or lost in the computation, not the rate. We take your trial balance, run the adjustments, decide the relief position and file it as your appointed tax agent.
-
WHAT IS INCLUDED
- Corporate Tax registration on EmaraTax, including free zone entities
- Taxable income computation from your trial balance, with adjustments documented
- Small Business Relief assessment and election where revenue supports it
- Qualifying Free Zone Person analysis — testing whether you actually hold 0%
- Return preparation and submission as your appointed tax agent
- FTA query and clarification handling, start to finish
TAX
VAT & Excise Tax
Returns that reconcile to your books, and refunds that actually land.
Most VAT penalties come from small, repeated errors — a wrong emirate box, input tax claimed without a valid invoice, a return that does not tie back to the ledger. We file from reconciled books and keep the evidence ready before the FTA asks.
-
WHAT IS INCLUDED
- VAT registration, deregistration and tax group applications
- Periodic VAT returns prepared from a reconciled ledger, not a summary
- Refund claims prepared and pursued through to payment
- VAT health checks and voluntary disclosures to correct historic errors
- Excise registration, stock declarations and designated zone reporting
- Full representation during FTA queries, reviews and tax audits
TAX
e-Invoicing Readiness
Peppol-ready before the mandate reaches you, not after.
The UAE is moving to a Peppol-based e-invoicing model, which means invoices pass through an accredited service provider rather than your email. That is an ERP project with a deadline, not a tax form. We run it end to end in partnership with Taxilla, an MoF pre-approved provider.
-
WHAT IS INCLUDED
- Readiness assessment against the PINT AE data dictionary
- Accredited service provider appointment and onboarding
- ERP and accounting system integration, including field mapping
- Master data clean-up — TRNs, customer records, item and tax codes
- Test transmission, validation and controlled go-live
- Staff training and a documented exception-handling process
II
Accounting & Advisory
Books, audit and senior finance support.
Accurate books are no longer just good practice — they are the evidence base for your Corporate Tax return and your audit file.
Accounting & Advisory
Accounting & Bookkeeping
Books closed on time, reconciled, and ready for tax and audit.
Since Corporate Tax arrived, bookkeeping stopped being administrative. Your ledger is now the starting point for a filed tax return and an audit file, which means it has to be right the first time and closed on a schedule.
-
WHAT IS INCLUDED
- Full ledger maintenance — sales, purchases, banks, journals, fixed assets
- Monthly bank, receivable, payable and intercompany reconciliations
- IFRS-compliant financial statements, including IFRS for SMEs
- Payroll processing with WPS-compliant records and end-of-service accruals
- Multi-currency accounting and consolidation across entities
- Cloud accounting on Zoho Books, QuickBooks, Xero or Tally
- Catch-up and clean-up of backlogs before a tax or audit deadline
Accounting & Advisory
Virtual CFO
Senior finance judgement for the days you need it, not a full-time salary.
Most SMEs need a finance director about four days a month — for the board pack, the bank conversation, the pricing decision and the cash forecast. That is exactly what this is.
-
WHAT IS INCLUDED
- Monthly management reporting with commentary a board can act on
- Cash flow forecasting and working capital management
- Budgeting, variance analysis and rolling reforecasts
- Margin, pricing and cost structure analysis by product or division
- Board and investor packs, and support in bank or funding conversations
- Finance process design and internal controls as you scale
Accounting & Advisory
External Audit
A short fieldwork, and no findings you did not already know about.
Audits go badly when the preparation is done during the audit. We either perform the audit, or we get your file into a state where somebody else's fieldwork is quick and the outcome is predictable.
-
WHAT IS INCLUDED
- Statutory audit for mainland and free zone companies
- Special-purpose and agreed-upon-procedures engagements
- Audit readiness review — schedules, confirmations and support prepared upfront
- Liaison with your appointed auditor to keep fieldwork short
- Management letter points explained and turned into a fix list
- Free zone authority submission support and renewal filing
III
AML & Compliance
Programmes, audits and registrations for DNFBPs.
Built by CAMS-certified officers who have sat on the other side of an inspection and know exactly which file the inspector opens first.
AML & Compliance
goAML Registration
Registered under the correct entity and category — first time.
Most goAML rejections are avoidable: the wrong entity type, the wrong sector category, a compliance officer whose documents do not match, an authorisation letter in the wrong format. We prepare the file properly and handle the rejections if they come.
-
WHAT IS INCLUDED
- Correct entity type and sector category determination before you submit
- goAML and Automatic Reporting System registration end to end
- MLRO / Compliance Officer appointment and supporting documentation
- Document pack preparation — licence, authorisation, ID, contact records
- Rejection diagnosis and resubmission where a prior attempt failed
- Post-registration walkthrough so your team can actually file a report
AML & Compliance
AML for Gold & Diamond Dealers
Sector-specific AML for the DPMS trade, cash thresholds included.
Precious metals and stones carry their own reporting regime on top of the general AML obligations, and cash is where inspections concentrate. We build the controls around how the trade actually operates rather than a generic template.
-
WHAT IS INCLUDED
- DPMS-specific risk assessment covering cash, bullion and cross-border flows
- Cash threshold monitoring and DPMS reporting procedures
- Source of funds and source of wealth evidence standards
- Counterparty and supplier due diligence, including refiners and couriers
- Sanctions screening with retained, dated evidence per transaction
- Independent AML audit and inspection readiness review
AML & Compliance
AML for Real Estate Brokers
The exact file an inspector asks for, ready before they ask.
Real estate inspections follow a predictable pattern, and brokerages fail them for predictable reasons — no dated screening, no beneficial ownership on corporate buyers, training that nobody can evidence. We build the file to that pattern.
-
WHAT IS INCLUDED
- Brokerage risk assessment covering buyer, seller, transaction and delivery channel
- Customer due diligence packs for individual and corporate parties
- Beneficial ownership identification and verification on corporate buyers
- Dated sanctions and PEP screening records, retrievable per deal
- Cash and virtual asset transaction reporting procedures
- Documented staff training with attendance and assessment evidence
- Mock inspection and gap remediation before the real one
