Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about accounting & bookkeeping in the UAE.

Is bookkeeping mandatory for businesses in the UAE? +

Yes. Under UAE Corporate Tax Law, businesses are required to maintain proper financial records for at least 7 years. Additionally, VAT-registered businesses must keep accurate books to file VAT returns and remain compliant with the Federal Tax Authority (FTA).

What is the difference between bookkeeping and accounting? +

Bookkeeping is the process of recording day-to-day financial transactions โ€” sales, purchases, receipts, and payments. Accounting goes a step further by analyzing, summarizing, and reporting that data through financial statements, helping business owners make strategic decisions.

How does outsourced accounting help my UAE business? +

Outsourced accounting gives you access to a dedicated team of experts without the overhead of hiring in-house staff. You get accurate, timely financial records, compliance with UAE VAT and Corporate Tax regulations, and the freedom to focus on growing your business.

Do free zone companies in UAE also need accounting services? +

Absolutely. Free zone companies are equally required to maintain financial records and comply with UAE Corporate Tax and, where applicable, VAT regulations. Proper accounting also supports license renewals, investor reporting, and bank account management.

How often should I update my business books? +

Ideally, books should be updated on a daily or weekly basis to ensure accuracy. At a minimum, monthly reconciliation is essential for VAT filing purposes. Emrise provides monthly and quarterly reporting cycles tailored to your business needs.

What accounting software do you use? +

We work with leading cloud-based accounting platforms including QuickBooks, Zoho Books, Xero, and others. We recommend and set up the best tool based on your business size, industry, and preferences โ€” ensuring you have full visibility at all times.

Does Emrise also handle VAT and Corporate Tax filing? +

Yes. Our services include VAT return preparation and filing with the FTA, along with Corporate Tax compliance support. We ensure your records are prepared correctly so your tax filings are accurate and submitted on time โ€” helping you avoid penalties.
