FTA Assistance Services in UAE

Dealing with tax-related requirements can become challenging when your business receives a communication from the Federal Tax Authority (FTA), faces a tax review, needs to correct previously submitted information, or requires support with VAT and Corporate Tax compliance.

Dar Al Fann Tax Consultancy provides professional FTA Assistance Services in UAE to help businesses understand their tax obligations, organize supporting records, respond to FTA requirements and manage tax-related matters in a structured and timely manner.

Our team assists businesses with VAT and Corporate Tax-related requirements, FTA correspondence, tax reviews, documentation preparation, compliance support, registration-related matters and other situations where professional assistance is required.

Whether you have received an FTA notification or simply want to make sure your tax records and procedures are properly organized, we can assess your situation and recommend the appropriate course of action.

What Is FTA Assistance?

FTA assistance refers to professional support provided to businesses dealing with matters involving the UAE Federal Tax Authority.

This may include helping businesses understand FTA communications, preparing relevant documentation, reviewing tax records, identifying potential compliance issues and assisting with responses or submissions where appropriate.

The exact support required depends on the nature of the matter, the applicable tax, the business's records and the communication or requirement received from the FTA.

Why Do Businesses Need FTA Assistance?

VAT and Corporate Tax compliance involves more than simply submitting a tax return. Businesses need to maintain appropriate records, understand applicable requirements, meet filing deadlines and respond appropriately when the FTA requests information.

Professional FTA assistance can help businesses approach tax-related matters with a structured process and reduce the risk of overlooking important documentation or deadlines.

FTA support can be particularly useful when a business:

  • Receives an FTA notification or communication
  • Is selected for a tax review or audit
  • Needs help understanding a tax requirement
  • Has concerns about VAT compliance
  • Needs support with Corporate Tax compliance
  • Has incomplete or inconsistent tax records
  • Needs to amend previously submitted information
  • Has outstanding tax-related matters
  • Needs assistance preparing documents for the FTA
  • Wants to review its tax compliance position

Our FTA Assistance Services in UAE

Dar Al Fann Tax Consultancy provides practical support for a range of UAE tax-related situations. The scope of our assistance is determined after understanding the business and the specific FTA matter involved.

FTA Communication Assistance

Receiving an FTA notification can leave business owners uncertain about what information is being requested and what action needs to be taken.

We review the communication and help you understand the nature of the request, the relevant requirements and the information that may need to be prepared or submitted.

FTA Notice Review

FTA notices may relate to different tax or compliance matters. Before taking action, it is important to understand what the notice means and what response may be appropriate.

Our team can review the notice and help identify the relevant documents, records and information required for the next stage.

FTA Tax Audit Support

A tax audit or review can require a business to provide financial records, invoices, accounting information and tax-related documentation.

We assist businesses in organizing relevant records and preparing for the information requirements associated with an FTA tax audit or review.

Our role is to help establish an organized response based on the available accounting and tax records of the business.

VAT Compliance Assistance

VAT compliance requires businesses to maintain appropriate records and apply VAT rules correctly to their transactions.

We assist businesses with VAT-related compliance matters, including reviewing accounting and VAT records, identifying potential issues and supporting corrective actions where required.

Corporate Tax Assistance

Corporate Tax has introduced additional tax compliance responsibilities for businesses operating in the UAE.

We provide assistance with Corporate Tax-related matters, including compliance reviews, documentation, registration-related requirements and support with tax filing matters according to the business's circumstances.

FTA Registration Assistance

Businesses may require assistance when registering for VAT or Corporate Tax with the FTA.

We can help review the information required for registration, organize relevant documents and guide businesses through the applicable registration process.

FTA Deregistration Assistance

Businesses that no longer meet the applicable requirements for maintaining a tax registration may need to consider deregistration.

Our team can assist with reviewing the circumstances, preparing relevant information and guiding the business through the applicable deregistration requirements.

VAT Return Review

Incorrect or incomplete VAT information can create compliance concerns for a registered business.

We can review relevant VAT return information and supporting accounting records to identify inconsistencies that may require attention before or after filing.

VAT Amendment Assistance

If an error is identified in previously submitted VAT information, the appropriate corrective procedure should be assessed based on the nature of the error and applicable UAE VAT requirements.

We assist businesses in reviewing the underlying records and determining the appropriate approach for correcting identified VAT information.

FTA Penalty Assistance

Businesses may face administrative or tax-related penalties for certain non-compliance situations.

We can review the circumstances surrounding a penalty, identify the relevant records and advise on the available compliance or corrective steps.

Where a penalty reconsideration or other formal procedure may be applicable, the matter is assessed based on the specific facts and supporting evidence.

FTA Voluntary Disclosure Support

Where a business identifies an error or omission that requires corrective action, the appropriate disclosure or correction process should be considered carefully.

We can review the underlying accounting and tax information and assist with preparing the relevant information for the applicable FTA procedure.

FTA Tax Record Review

Maintaining organized tax records is essential for demonstrating how VAT or Corporate Tax calculations have been determined.

We review relevant records and supporting documentation to help identify missing information, inconsistencies or areas requiring further attention.

FTA Documentation Support

FTA-related matters can require a business to provide multiple documents within a specified period.

We help businesses identify and organize relevant accounting, financial, commercial and tax documentation according to the requirements of the matter being addressed.

FTA Correspondence Support

Clear and accurate communication is important when responding to tax authority requests.

Depending on the scope of engagement, we can assist businesses in organizing information and preparing appropriate responses based on the available records and the nature of the FTA communication.

FTA Assistance for VAT Matters

VAT-registered businesses have ongoing responsibilities relating to tax invoices, records, returns, payments and other compliance requirements.

  • VAT deregistration support
  • VAT return review
  • VAT amendment assistance
  • VAT refund support
  • VAT record review
  • FTA VAT notice assistance

  • Corporate Tax filing assistance
  • Tax record organization
  • Corporate Tax documentation support
  • FTA communication assistance

FTA Audit Assistance in UAE

An FTA tax audit can require careful preparation because the authority may request accounting records, tax invoices, bank information, contracts and other supporting documents.

Dar Al Fann Tax Consultancy helps businesses prepare for such reviews by organizing the relevant records and identifying potential gaps that should be addressed before responding.

Our FTA Audit Preparation Process

  1. Review the FTA communication or audit request
  2. Identify the applicable tax periods and tax types
  3. Determine the documentation requested
  4. Collect relevant accounting and tax records
  5. Review the available information for inconsistencies
  6. Organize supporting documents
  7. Assist with the preparation of relevant information
  8. Support the business through the applicable response process

FTA Penalty Review & Assistance

Receiving an FTA penalty can be concerning for a business, particularly when the reason for the penalty is not immediately clear.

We help businesses understand the circumstances surrounding the penalty, review relevant records and identify potential corrective actions.

Depending on the nature of the matter, the available options and supporting evidence may differ. We therefore assess each case individually rather than applying the same approach to every penalty.

FTA Voluntary Disclosure Assistance

If a business discovers that previously submitted tax information contains an error or omission, it is important to evaluate the matter promptly.

Our team can review the accounting records, identify the nature of the discrepancy and assist with the applicable corrective procedure where appropriate.

The correct procedure depends on factors such as the tax period, type of error, amount involved and applicable UAE tax regulations.

FTA Compliance Health Check

Businesses do not have to wait until they receive an FTA notice to review their tax compliance position.

A tax compliance health check can help identify areas where the business's accounting and tax processes may require improvement.

Depending on the engagement, our review may consider:

  • VAT registration status
  • VAT return information
  • Tax invoice practices
  • VAT accounting records
  • Corporate Tax registration status
  • Corporate Tax records
  • Tax filing history
  • Supporting financial documentation
  • Outstanding tax-related matters
  • Potential compliance gaps

FTA Assistance for SMEs in UAE

Small and medium-sized businesses may not have an in-house tax specialist available to handle every FTA-related requirement.

Our FTA assistance services provide SMEs with access to professional tax support when dealing with registrations, notices, compliance reviews, audits, amendments and other tax-related matters.

FTA Assistance for Startups

New businesses may be unfamiliar with the UAE tax environment and the administrative requirements associated with VAT and Corporate Tax.

We help startups understand the tax-related requirements relevant to their business and establish appropriate records and compliance processes from the beginning.

FTA Assistance for Businesses Changing Accountants

Changing an accountant or tax consultant can create gaps in communication, records and compliance processes.

We can review the available accounting and tax records and help businesses establish a structured approach for managing outstanding FTA-related matters.
