Common questions
About tax.
Not covered here? — we reply within one business day.
Is corporate tax included in your plans?
Registration and the annual return are included in every accounting plan.
Can you help if I have already received a penalty?
Yes. We review the penalty and tell you whether there are grounds for a reconsideration or waiver request before you pay for one.
Are these fees fixed?
Yes, as published. Only transfer pricing and very large groups start from a published minimum.
Do you handle e-invoicing?
Yes — a readiness assessment, choosing and appointing an Accredited Service Provider, setting up your accounting system and monitoring after go-live.
What if the FTA asks questions about a return?
We answer FTA correspondence on returns we filed. For audits of earlier periods, FTA audit cover gives you up to 10 hours a year for AED 300 a month.
