Outsourced accounting in the UAE is not just about entities

I am a small business owner or freelancer.
Do I need professional accounting services? In short, yes. Let’s take a closer look at your legal obligations in the UAE:

Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs)

Freelancers

The law states that "every company must keep proper books of accounts." It mean that even the SMEs must maintain proper financial records to avoid penalties and legal complications.

Under the UAE’s Federal Law No. 2 of 2015, SMEs need to follow the IFRS accounting standards specified in Ministerial Decision No. 114 of 2023.”

Even if your business have zero income, you still need to register for Corporate Tax and file financial reports every year.

Federal Decree-Law No. (47) of 2022 on the Taxation includes freelancers. They usually need to keep financial records, but the level of complexity depends on their income and the nature of their work. The tax threshold for independent contractors is substantial at AED 1 million.

Freelancers should register for both VAT and Corporate Tax. If their annual taxable supplies exceed AED 375,000, they must file quarterly VAT returns and yearly Corporate Tax reports.
