Any company or entrepreneur registered in the UAE and conducting commercial activities is required to maintain accounting records in accordance with Federal Law No. 2 of 2015 on Commercial Companies. This obligation applies to both mainland and free zone companies, who must record all financial transactions, including purchases, sales, banking transactions, payroll, taxes, debts, and other operations. These records must be kept for 5 years after the end of the tax period, calendar, or financial year. Failure to comply with these accounting requirements can result in a fine ranging from AED 50,000 to AED 500,000.

It is crucial to organize accounting records accurately, manage them according to UAE laws, and submit financial reports on time. Professional accounting services can help prevent critical mistakes, allowing businesses to focus on long-term growth and development. As the UAE’s financial system evolves and laws are regularly updated, staying informed about new regulations is essential for effective accounting.

Who Needs Accounting Services in Dubai?

1. Mainland Companies
   Companies operating on the mainland are required to keep accounting records and file financial reports according to UAE laws.

2. Free Zone Companies
   Many free zones mandate regular financial reporting audits. While freelancers in free zones aren’t required to maintain accounting records until their revenue exceeds AED 3 million, it is recommended to track all financial activities to ensure compliance and prevent issues, especially during potential audits.

3. Freelancers
   Freelancers in the UAE can benefit from maintaining accurate financial documentation, even if not required by law. This ensures smooth banking operations and compliance with potential future changes in regulations.

4. Offshore Companies
   Although offshore companies aren’t obligated to submit financial reports in the UAE, it is still advisable to maintain meticulous records to reflect the company’s financial health accurately.

Reasons to Order Bookkeeping Services in Dubai

1. Corporate Profit Tax
   With the introduction of a 9% corporate tax on profits exceeding AED 375,000, all companies are required to register with the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) and file an annual tax return. To comply with these regulations, it is recommended to use bookkeeping services in the UAE.

2. VAT
   If business profits exceed AED 375,000, businesses are also subject to 5% VAT and must register with the tax authority, filing VAT returns quarterly or monthly.

3. Audit
   Mainland companies and some free zones require independent audits of financial statements. Outsourcing bookkeeping services ensures that your financial records are audit-ready.

4. Business Transparency
   Accounting and bookkeeping offer a clear financial overview, helping businesses assess their financial capabilities, make informed decisions, and ensure transparency in case of bank audits or loan applications.

5. Compliance with Laws and Standards
   As per the Companies Law of 2021, companies must provide financial statements in accordance with IFRS. It is crucial to engage with an accredited service provider for audits and reporting to meet the legal requirements.
