Frequently asked questions

Do UAE companies have to keep formal accounting records?

Yes. Corporate Tax Article 56 requires every taxable person to keep records supporting the return for seven years, and VAT-registered businesses must be able to produce invoices and ledgers on request.

Which accounting standard applies in the UAE?

IFRS. Businesses with revenue of AED 50 million or less may use IFRS for SMEs. Financial statements must be prepared on an accruals basis unless revenue is under AED 3 million, where the cash basis is permitted.

When does a UAE company need audited financial statements?

Audited statements are required for Corporate Tax purposes where revenue exceeds AED 50 million, for every Qualifying Free Zone Person, and wherever the free-zone authority or the company’s own memorandum requires it.

Can I keep my books in a language other than Arabic?

You can maintain records in English day to day, but the FTA can require an Arabic translation. Failure to produce records in Arabic when asked carries a AED 5,000 penalty under Cabinet Decision 129/2025.
