From audit ready accounts to final sign off

Need help managing your statutory audit in the UAE? 

 

We provide expert audit coordination to ensure your audit is completed correctly, on time and fully in line with UAE regulations and FTA requirements.

 

In the UAE, audits must be carried out by an independent licensed auditor. The firm that prepares your accounts cannot audit its own work. Many business owners are unaware of this requirement, which is where we step in.

 

We prepare your accounts to audit ready standards, coordinate directly with an approved independent auditor and manage the process from start to finish. 

 

This reduces delays, avoids compliance issues and gives you confidence that your audit meets regulatory and corporate tax requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Audit coordination is the process of managing and supporting your audit without performing the audit itself. It includes preparing audit ready financial statements, coordinating with an independent licensed auditor, managing queries and supporting the audit through to completion.

No. Audits in the UAE must be completed by an independent licensed auditor. The firm that prepares the company accounts cannot audit its own work. We coordinate the audit process and work alongside an independent auditor to ensure full compliance.

UAE regulations and Federal Tax Authority guidelines require auditor independence. This means the same firm cannot prepare the accounts and audit them. This rule applies to both Mainland and Free Zone companies.

Not all businesses are required to have an audit, but many are. Mainland companies are generally required to have audited financial statements. Many Free Zones also require audited accounts annually for licence renewal. Requirements depend on your jurisdiction and licence authority.

Audit coordination ensures your accounts are properly prepared, the correct independent auditor is appointed and the audit process runs smoothly. It reduces delays, avoids unnecessary queries and helps you meet regulatory and tax deadlines with confidence.

Yes. We coordinate with an independent licensed auditor that meets your jurisdiction and authority requirements. We ensure independence is maintained and that the auditor is approved by the relevant regulator or Free Zone.

The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the business, the quality of records and the auditor’s requirements. Proper audit coordination helps minimise delays and ensures the process is completed as efficiently as possible.

Where an audit is required, it is typically completed before the Corporate Tax return is prepared and filed. Audit coordination helps ensure audited figures align with your Corporate Tax submission and reduces the risk of errors or amendments.

We typically require access to your accounting records, supporting documents, bank statements and company details. We will guide you through exactly what is needed and liaise with your previous accountant if required.
