The accounting itself is handled by our team in Dubai, licensed accountants registered with the Federal Tax Authority. They keep your books, file your VAT returns and take care of your Corporate Tax. And they're the ones you speak to when you have a question.


We work with ecommerce businesses, SaaS companies, agencies and independent consultants, whether you're starting a company or moving your existing accounting over to us.
