Mubarak Alketbi Chartered Accountants is a Dubai-based firm that focuses on giving UAE businesses clear, practical advice rather than jargon. Working in both English and Arabic, the team supports owners who want reliable bookkeeping and tax support while they focus on sales, hiring and operations. From their Dubai base they handle day-to-day records, payroll and audits for SMEs that don’t need a big-four name, but do need someone who’ll actually pick up the phone.
What accounting and tax services does Mubarak Alketbi Chartered Accountants offer in Dubai?
The firm covers the full accounting cycle: bookkeeping, monthly or quarterly VAT returns, payroll calculations, and year-end audit support when banks or free zones ask for signed financial statements. As an FTA-approved provider, they handle VAT registration in the UAE, VAT health checks and corrections, helping clients avoid penalties for late filings or incorrect input tax claims. On the direct tax side, they act as a corporate tax advisor in Dubai, mapping out how the new UAE corporate tax rules apply to mainland and free zone entities, and checking where Economic Substance Regulations might be triggered.
How can they support company setup, restructuring or liquidation in the UAE?
For founders setting up in Dubai, the firm helps choose between mainland and free zone options, prepares opening balance sheets and aligns the chart of accounts with FTA and Ministry of Economy expectations. When a business needs to close or restructure, they manage company liquidation steps, from closing VAT registrations to preparing final accounts for authorities and landlords. That mix of formation and liquidation experience means they’ve seen the full business life cycle, which often leads to more grounded advice when owners are deciding whether to expand, pause or exit.
