Before You Ask

Accounting, bookkeeping, VAT compliance, corporate tax services, business valuation, transaction advisory, consulting, capital markets and technology consulting — six practices and forty-five services under one accountable partner.

Yes. Every engagement is scoped by a senior adviser and priced as a fixed fee before work begins. No hourly meters, no hidden costs, no surprises at invoice time.

Enquiries receive a reply within one business day, and most engagements start within a week. During compliance crunch periods we prioritise deadline-critical work.

Real estate and construction, retail and F&B, healthcare, manufacturing and logistics, technology and startups, professional services and family businesses — plus investors across all of them.

Yes. We frequently act as the specialist tax or valuation layer over an in-house team, and we prepare audit files for external auditors — we deliberately do not audit our own clients.

Yes — all taxable persons must register with the FTA regardless of income level, and late registration alone carries an AED 10,000 penalty. Small business relief must be actively claimed, not assumed.

Within nine months of your financial year end — for a December year end, by the following 30 September. Payment is due by the same date and there is no extension mechanism.

Registration is mandatory once taxable supplies exceed AED 375,000 on a rolling 12-month basis, and voluntary from AED 187,500. Deregistration deadlines apply too — both directions carry penalties.

OECD-aligned arm's-length rules apply to all related-party and connected-person transactions — domestic and cross-border alike. Pricing must be defensible and, above thresholds, formally documented.

Errors above AED 10,000 require a voluntary disclosure within 20 business days of discovery. Disclosed errors carry far lower penalties than discovered ones — speed and preparation quality both matter.

A fixed monthly fee scoped to your transaction volume and reporting needs — typically far less than one in-house hire, with a full team and senior review included.

Zoho Books, QuickBooks, Xero, Odoo, Tally and the major UAE POS and practice platforms. Licences and data always remain yours.

Increasingly yes — free zone licence renewals, corporate tax rules for larger businesses, bank facilities and shareholder requirements all drive audit obligations. We prepare audit-ready statements and manage the process.

Our standard close delivers the full pack — P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, KPIs and commentary — by day five of the following month.

Yes — real estate valuations are delivered through our group firm Reliant Surveyors under RICS Red Book standards, accepted by major UAE lenders, auditors and courts.

Most complete within two to four weeks depending on complexity and information readiness — faster where a transaction clock demands it.

Our advisory fees are fixed and milestone-based by design — we avoid pure success-fee structures that pressure advisers toward any deal over the right deal.

Yes — exit readiness, valuation, information memorandum, buyer process and negotiation through to completion, with tax structuring inside the deal from day one.
