    14 months of backlog accounting cleared and overdue VAT returns approved.

    What Velmont did

    • Revenue analysis against UAE QFZP qualifying-income rules
    • Substance + de-minimis evidence pack for QFZP defence
    • CT registration + first-year computation + on-time return

Accounting FAQs

Questions UAE SMEs ask before hiring an accounting firm.

Clear answers grounded in current FTA, MoF and Ministry of Economy guidance.

Velmont Crest UAE accounting advisor answering Dubai SME questions on VAT, corporate tax and bookkeeping inside a modern office
  • When do I need to register for VAT in the UAE?

    Mandatory registration kicks in when your taxable supplies exceed AED 375,000 over the last 12 months — or you expect to exceed it in the next 30 days. Voluntary registration is available from AED 187,500.

  • What's the corporate tax rate for SMEs in the UAE?

    9% on taxable income above AED 375,000. The first AED 375,000 is taxed at 0%. Small Business Relief lets you treat revenue as zero if you're under AED 3M turnover (subject to election + conditions).

  • Do free zone companies pay corporate tax?

    Free zone entities can be Qualifying Free Zone Persons (QFZP) at 0% on qualifying income — but only if they meet substance, qualifying-activity and de minimis rules. Non-qualifying income is taxed at 9%. We assess this per-entity, not by zone.

  • How often do I file VAT returns?

    Quarterly is standard. Larger turnover (AED 150M+ annually) files monthly. Returns and payments are due 28 days after the end of the tax period — no grace period from the FTA.

  • What's the difference between mainland and free zone licences?

    Mainland = trade anywhere in the UAE + government work; subject to standard corporate tax. Free zone = 100% foreign ownership in older zones, customs benefits, potential 0% CT under QFZP rules. The right structure depends on who you sell to, not what's cheapest to set up.

  • Do I need an audit?

    Mandatory for: mainland LLCs above certain thresholds, all DMCC and DIFC entities, any QFZP claiming 0% CT. Strongly recommended for SMEs with external investors, bank financing, or planning to raise. We handle audit prep regardless.

  • How do you handle backlog accounting?

    One-off engagement, quoted on scope. We rebuild your chart of accounts, reconcile all bank and card statements, prepare prior-period filings if needed, and hand over clean books. Typical 12-month backlog: 2–4 weeks of work.

  • How quickly can you take over my books from another accountant?

    Discovery call within 48 hours. Clean handover document, prior-period review and gap report within the first week. Live cycle start the following month. We handle the actual handoff conversation with the outgoing accountant if you'd rather not.
