Outsourced accounting services in Dubai
Hiring a full-time accountant is a big step for a small company. Outsourcing gives you a finance function, with review built in, for a fixed monthly fee.
- Engagement
- Fixed monthly scope and fee
- Team
- A named accountant plus a reviewer
- Tools
- Cloud accounting software in your name
- Reports
- Monthly, by an agreed date
A finance team without the headcount
When you outsource accounting services in Dubai, you are buying a result: clean books and reliable numbers every month, the same standard as our wider accounting and bookkeeping services. You do not have to recruit, sponsor a visa, cover leave or check the work yourself.
An in-house accountant working alone has nobody to review them. An outsourced team does. One person processes your transactions and another reviews the month before the reports reach you.
Everything runs in cloud accounting software registered in your company's name, so you can log in at any time and your data stays with you if you ever move on.
Figures on this page reflect UAE rules as understood in October 2026. We confirm what applies to your company before any filing.
What you can hand over
Day-to-day bookkeeping
Sales, purchases, expenses and journals processed from documents you upload or forward.
Accounts receivable
Invoicing support, customer statements and follow-up lists so you get paid sooner.
Accounts payable
Supplier invoices recorded, due dates tracked and payment runs prepared for your approval.
Payroll processing
Monthly payroll calculations, payslips and WPS files.
Management reporting
Profit and loss, balance sheet, cash position and a short note on what changed.
Tax compliance
VAT returns and the corporate tax return prepared from the same set of books.
Moving your accounting to us
A structured handover, so nothing is lost on the way.
Scoping call
We agree what you want to hand over, your volumes and your reporting dates.
Handover
We take over your existing books, or set up new ones, and document your processes.
Parallel month
The first month is run with extra checks to confirm balances and catch gaps.
Steady state
You share documents weekly. We process, reconcile, close and report every month.
Review
A short call each quarter to look at the numbers and adjust the scope if your business has changed.
In-house accountant or outsourced team?
| Item | In-house accountant | Outsourced team |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Salary, visa, insurance, end-of-service, software | One fixed monthly fee |
| Cover | Work stops during leave or after a resignation | Continuity is our responsibility |
| Review | Usually none unless you check it yourself | A second person reviews every month |
| Tax knowledge | Depends on the individual | Tax team works from the same books |
| Scaling | Hire again when volume grows | Scope adjusted as you grow |
An in-house team makes sense once volume and complexity justify it. We often support clients through that transition and stay on for review and tax.
Who outsourcing suits
Outsourced accounting fits best when these apply.
- You have up to a few hundred transactions a month
- The owner or an office manager is doing the books at night
- Your accountant left and the books have stalled
- You want tax and accounting handled together
- You are a new company that needs proper books from the start
What does outsourced accounting include?
Usually bookkeeping, bank reconciliation, receivables and payables, monthly reports and year-end accounts. Payroll, VAT and corporate tax can be added. The scope is written down before we start.
Is my financial data secure?
Your books sit in established cloud accounting software under your own account, with access limited to the people working on your file. You can remove access at any time.
How do I send you documents?
Upload to a shared folder, forward by email or send photos on WhatsApp. Bank feeds and sales platforms can be connected directly where the bank or platform supports it.
Will I have a dedicated accountant?
Yes. You have a named accountant who knows your business, and a reviewer who checks the month-end.
Can you take over mid-year?
Yes. We take your closing balances from the last reliable date and continue from there, fixing earlier periods if needed.
Do you offer accounting for free zone companies?
Yes. We work with mainland and free zone companies and prepare the financial statements your free zone authority asks for.
