Does a free zone company need to register for Corporate Tax?
Yes. Free zone and mainland companies must both register with the FTA and file an annual return, even when they expect to pay 0%. We check whether you meet the Qualifying Free Zone Person conditions and keep the evidence ready.
When is VAT registration mandatory?
When your taxable supplies and imports exceed AED 375,000 in the last 12 months, or are expected to in the next 30 days. You can register voluntarily from AED 187,500.
Do I need Transfer Pricing documentation?
Local and master files are required when the entity’s revenue is AED 200 million or more, or it belongs to a group with consolidated revenue of AED 3.15 billion or more. Below that, related-party transactions must still be at arm’s length, and may need a disclosure with your Corporate Tax return.
When does e-invoicing apply to my business?
The UAE is introducing mandatory e-invoicing in phases from 2026, starting with larger businesses. We assess your systems, help you appoint an Accredited Service Provider and test your invoices before go-live.
Who needs audited financial statements?
Under Corporate Tax, businesses with revenue above AED 50 million and Qualifying Free Zone Persons must keep audited statements. Many free zone authorities also require an annual audit for licence renewal.
How are your fees set?
Before work starts, as a fixed fee per project, a fixed monthly fee for retainers, or a monthly fee per dedicated staff member. The scope, timeline and fee are agreed in writing.
Which accounting software do you work in?
Xero, Zoho, Sage and QuickBooks. If you are not on a system yet, we set one up and migrate your records.
How do audits through partner firms work?
Statutory and regulatory audits are signed by licensed partner firms. HM Vantage prepares and coordinates the work, so you keep one point of contact.
