Frequently asked questions

Do we need internal audit if we already have an external auditor?

They do different jobs. The external auditor gives an opinion on your financial statements; internal audit looks at how well your processes and controls protect the business throughout the year.

Can you help us get ready for our external audit?

Yes. We prepare the lead schedules and supporting documents, answer auditor queries and help you close the findings quickly.

Which companies need audited financial statements in the UAE?

For Corporate Tax: businesses with revenue above AED 50 million and every Qualifying Free Zone Person. Many free zone authorities, banks and investors also ask for audited accounts.

How often should internal audit be done?

Most SMEs benefit from a risk-based plan covering the key areas — cash, purchasing, sales, inventory and payroll — over 12 months, with quarterly reporting to the owners or board.

Can you count our inventory at year-end?

Yes. We plan and attend stock counts, reconcile the results to your system and document the differences for your auditor.
