Read →Questions we hear every week
Who needs to register for UAE Corporate Tax?
Every UAE company — mainland or free zone — is a taxable person and must register with the FTA, even if no tax will be payable. Late registration carries an AED 10,000 administrative penalty.
Do you work with free zone companies?
Yes. We prepare returns for free zone persons, including the Qualifying Free Zone Person (QFZP) analysis that decides whether income is taxed at 0% or 9%.
Is the accounting software really free?
Yes. Every plan includes an FTA-accredited cloud accounting system (Zoho Books), set up by us and included in your fee for as long as you are on the plan. If you already use QuickBooks or Xero, we can work on that instead.
Can you fix books that are behind?
Yes. Our catch-up service brings backlog months up to date, reconciles the bank, and then moves you onto a monthly plan so you stay current.
How do your fees work?
Fixed fees, agreed in advance and based on your monthly transaction volume and the returns you need. There are no hourly charges for work within your plan.
