Accounting, VAT, and Corporate Tax Guides for UAE SMEs

Practical guides and checklists covering VAT filing, Corporate Tax compliance, bookkeeping best practices, payroll management, and audit preparation written specifically for UAE businesses.

How to use these guides

These are the questions UAE business owners and finance managers ask us most often, written up so you can answer them without booking a call. Each guide sets out the obligation, who it applies to, the deadlines involved and what to prepare, in plain language and in the order you will meet it. Tax figures and thresholds are checked against the Federal Tax Authority and Ministry of Finance publications, and each guide shows the date it was last reviewed.

A guide is general information, not advice on your particular facts. Rules differ between a free zone company and a mainland one, between a restaurant and a consultancy, and between a business at the registration threshold and one well above it. If something in a guide looks like it might apply to you, treat it as a prompt to check, and speak to an adviser before you file or decide.

Where to start depends on what is closest to a deadline:
