What accounting and tax services does Legato 8 Tax Consultancy L.L.C handle in Dubai?
For companies looking for accounting services in Dubai, Legato 8 covers the full cycle. Monthly bookkeeping ties directly into VAT returns, so VAT registration in the UAE isn’t just a one-time form but an ongoing process that actually matches your invoices and bank statements. Their corporate tax work includes registration on EmaraTax, return preparation and review of related-party transactions, all with the new 9% federal tax rules in mind. When an audit is needed, they prepare schedules, trial balances and supporting documents that external auditors expect, cutting down on back-and-forth and last-minute stress.
How does Legato 8 Tax Consultancy L.L.C support compliance beyond basic filings?
Beyond tax returns, the firm advises on Economic Substance Regulations, making sure relevant activities like distribution or headquarters services are documented properly. Payroll is set up to align with UAE labour rules and WPS, which matters when you’re renewing visas or dealing with end-of-service calculations. They also assist with company formation and liquidation in Dubai, helping clients open with clean records and close with final VAT, corporate tax and audit issues cleared. For owners who just want to get the ball rolling and sleep at night, having an FTA-approved advisor quietly watching those details makes a real difference.
