Book-keeping, Financial Reporting and Accounting Software Implementation Services
UAE has started following international practices on direct and indirect business taxes, that has triggered launching of VAT in start of 2018 and announced the implementation of Corporate Taxation in first quarter of 2022. These major initiatives have necessitated for entrepreneurs to hire professional accountants in any entity irrespective of its legal status. Particularly, Corporate Taxation will emerge as a strict yardstick to maintain complete and accurate books of an entity's financial and operational transactions in compliance with financial reporting framework which is generally International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) in UAE.
Appointing professional accountants does not serve complete purpose of maintenance of proper books of accounts, as it requires accounting software to record an entity's transactions. Selection of relevant accounting software that is suitable for your business is a key to be cost effective with appropriate chart of accounts, functional integration and data privacy when selecting software solution.
For newly established businesses, it is essential to maintain records of transactions right from the beginning to avoid future complications in doing accounting reconciliations and non-compliances with statutory record keeping requirements as per the Companies Commercial Laws applicable in mainland and free-zone businesses.
Due to the increasing importance of proper recording of business transactions, outsourcing of accounting function is emerging as an integral part for those businesses that cannot afford full time professional accountants or those entrepreneurs who want to rely on a professional services rendering firm with experienced and competent team of chartered accountants to maintain and supervise their accounting records in compliance with acceptable financial reporting framework and business laws or regulations in UAE.

- Prepare and record purchase & sales invoices, payroll cost, inventory issuance, fixed assets detail, other expenses & income, receivables & payables with their ageing, advances & prepayments, cheques and all details of other assets, liabilities and partner's/shareholder's equity in accurate code of chart of accounts in accounting software.
