With the opening of the company in December 2022, I tried 3 accounting options:
I myself am not my option at all, I do not like to delve into new laws, nuances of reporting... but for the first time it's ok. I hired a Filipino accountant based on a recommendation. It seemed OK, but the language barrier prevented discussion of some issues and it worked sooo slowly. I switched to accountants from Belarus who have a company in the UAE. Everything is clear, fast, no more expensive than Filipinos, 2 accountants work in conjunction, which allows them to always stay in touch in our chat. invoices are made instantly, there is no language barrier. I asked questions about the contract or accounting and got a clear answer.
In July of this year, I reached the threshold of 375,000 USD on my personal account, the accountant registered the TRN number, and now VAT of 5% is added to all service accounts.
VAN is a mandatory registration upon reaching the income threshold of 375,000 USD for 12 months, to be paid quarterly.
I really like that my accountants keep very careful records of income and expenses, how much came, where did they go, who did not pay extra, every dirham is recorded.
