Accounting & Bookkeeping Services for UAE Businesses

Know where your business stands, every month.

ITQAN helps UAE businesses maintain organised records, reconcile accounts and receive useful monthly reports. Current books create a reliable foundation for management decisions, tax work, banking questions and year-end reporting.

Why it matters

Documents Are Not the Same as Organised Books

Source documents become useful books only when recorded consistently, linked to evidence and reconciled. Current books clarify revenue, expenses, cash, unpaid invoices, suppliers and year-end requirements.

01

Records are fragmented

Spreadsheets, scattered receipts, mixed expenses and incomplete months make performance difficult to confirm.

02

Reports arrive too late

Outdated profit, cash and balance information weakens management decisions.

03

A review is approaching

Tax, banking, investor or audit requests are easier with organised evidence.

Service scope

What Accounting and Bookkeeping May Include

Transaction recording

Sales, purchases, receipts and payments are classified in suitable software using supporting documents.

Bank and card reconciliation

Book entries are matched with statements to identify missing, duplicated or unexplained transactions.

Accounts receivable

Customer invoices, receipts, credit notes and outstanding balances are monitored. Collection is separate.

Accounts payable

Supplier invoices, payments and balances are organised. ITQAN does not authorise payments.

Expense classification

Consistent categories improve reporting, but recording an expense does not confirm tax deductibility.

Fixed assets and depreciation

Qualifying assets are recorded separately; depreciation spreads accounting cost across their useful periods.

Prepayments and accruals

Adjustments place future payments and current-period costs in the appropriate reporting period.

Month-end closing

Records are reviewed, reconciled and queried before the month is closed.

Management accounts

Reports may include profit and loss, balance sheet, cash information and schedules. They are unaudited.

Year-end support

Organised monthly books simplify year-end reporting and coordination with appointed professionals.

Monthly outputs

What the Client May Receive

Exact deliverables depend on the business, transaction volume and agreed scope. The purpose is to turn completed records into information management can actually review.

The proposal defines which reports, schedules and meetings apply. Not every package includes every output.

Monthly, Quarterly or Annual Bookkeeping?

Choose the rhythm according to volume, tax, reporting, banking, complexity and internal resources.

May suit lower volumesQuarterly

Periodic closing and review

Useful only where reporting and compliance requirements allow.

Limited circumstancesAnnual

Higher year-end pressure

Delayed recording can create avoidable work before major deadlines.

Tax-ready records

A Foundation for Separate VAT and Corporate Tax Work

Books organise invoices, credit notes, expenses, imports, exports, assets, bank records and supporting schedules.

Record maintenance is separate from return preparation, tax analysis or FTA representation.

Catch-up work

Bring Delayed or Unreliable Records Forward

Historical cleanup needs its own scope and enough evidence to support the accounting entries.

01

Assess

Review periods and available records.

02

Identify

List missing documents and unclear balances.

03

Rebuild

Record transactions and reconcile accounts.

04

Close

Prepare the issues list and close the period.

05

Continue

Establish a regular monthly routine.
