Is the firm actually FTA-registered?
Ask for the tax agent registration, not just "we do tax". Only registered agents can represent you directly before the authority.
The Decision
Every Firm Lists the Same Services
Corporate Tax, VAT, bookkeeping, audit — nearly every practice in Dubai offers the same list. The differences that actually matter show up after you sign, not in the pitch: who answers when the FTA writes back, whether your file is reviewed by a second person before it is submitted, and whether the fee you were quoted is the fee you are billed.
What to Look For
Six Things Worth Checking Before You Hire
Does one person own your file, or does it rotate?
A rotating support queue means re-explaining your business every time something comes up.
Is every submission independently reviewed?
A single preparer with no second check is how avoidable errors reach the FTA.
Are fees fixed, or does "complexity" get added later?
Ask specifically what triggers an additional charge, and get it in writing.
Are decisions documented, or just made?
If a position is queried two years later, only a written record will defend it.
Do they track your deadlines, or wait for you to ask?
The difference between a proactive practice and a reactive one shows up the first time a date is missed.

Tracked on our side, flagged weeks in advance |

Why Clients Switched
What Changed When They Moved to Us
From a rotating support inbox to one specialist
Businesses coming from larger firms most often cite having to re-explain their structure to a different person each time as the reason they moved.
From reactive to tracked
Clients who had previously missed a deadline — or come close — describe the shift to proactive tracking as the biggest single change.
From verbal assurances to written positions
Where a prior adviser had made a judgement call informally, we document it, which matters considerably if it is ever revisited.
Common Questions
Frequently Asked
Are you actually registered with the FTA, or do you just prepare returns?
We operate as a registered tax agency, meaning our agents can correspond with and represent clients directly before the Federal Tax Authority — not simply prepare a return for you to submit yourself.
What happens if you make an error on my return?
Every submission is reviewed by a second qualified specialist before it is filed, specifically to catch this before it happens. Where an error is ever identified after filing, we manage the correction — including any voluntary disclosure — as part of the engagement.
Can I switch to you mid-year if I already have an accountant?
Yes. This is common. We handle the handover, including requesting prior records and bringing any backlog up to date before moving you onto our standard cycle.
Do you work with businesses outside Dubai?
Yes. UAE Corporate Tax and VAT are federal, and we work with mainland and Free Zone entities across the Emirates, not only in Dubai.
What size of business do you typically work with?
From newly licensed single-owner entities to multi-entity groups. The engagement is scoped to what your structure actually requires rather than a fixed package.
