The Strategic Imperative of Financial Assurance in the UAE
In today's highly regulated UAE market, financial assurance is not merely a statutory formality—it is a vital
pillar of stakeholder credibility, institutional trust, and commercial expansion. Governed by UAE
Commercial Companies Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 32 of 2021) and the statutory mandates of major UAE
Freezones, companies must ensure their financial statements faithfully reflect their true financial position.

objective examinations. We identify financial risks before they manifest, evaluate internal governance
robustness, and express authoritative audit opinions trusted by government authorities, financial

Audit & Assurance FAQ
Yes. Under UAE Commercial Companies Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 32 of 2021) and the regulations of
major Free Zones (such as DMCC, JAFZA, DAFZA), maintaining audited financial statements prepared in
accordance with IFRS is a mandatory prerequisite for annual trade license renewals and Corporate Tax
compliance.
Typically, we require the trial balance, general ledgers, bank statements with year-end
reconciliations, fixed asset register, copy of trade license, Memorandum of Association (MOA), and
invoices for major revenue and expense transactions.
Depending on the size of the company and completeness of accounting records, our fieldwork and draft
report issuance typically takes between 5 to 10 business days from the receipt of all supporting
documents.
