Each UAE free zone authority — DMCC, JAFZA, DAFZA, RAKEZ, SHAMS, DIFC, ADGM, and others — has its own specific submission requirements, formats, and deadlines for audited financial statements. Getting this wrong can delay your license renewal. Our team has hands-on experience auditing entities across the UAE's major free zones and understands exactly what each authority expects.
We manage the audit process end-to-end and ensure your audited financial statements are submitted in the correct format, within your renewal timeline.
