This Is Not A Generic Accounting Course — It Is Built Around How Accounting Actually Works In The UAE. This Program Is Ideal For :
This program isn't taught from a textbook. It's led by a Senior Accountant with over 12 years of hands-on experience managing real UAE bookkeeping, VAT, and Corporate Tax work — the same practical knowledge you'll use on the job, taught the way it's actually applied in the UAE market.

Handle day-to-day bookkeeping: sales & purchase recording, receivables, payables, and month-end closing
Reconcile bank transactions and prepare a bank reconciliation statement
Understand and calculate UAE VAT (output vs input), and prepare VAT registration and filing
Register for Corporate Tax via EmaraTax and apply Mainland vs Free Zone compliance basics
Understand UAE payroll basics: salary structure, allowances, overtime, and end of service benefits

Muhammad Suhaif AliNo. The program starts from the basics — what accounting is and how it works in the UAE — and builds up to VAT, Corporate Tax, payroll, and reporting. Basic accounting knowledge helps but is not mandatory.
Yes — that's exactly what this program is built for. If you already have accounting experience from your home country, we focus on what's different here: UAE business types (Mainland & Free Zone), Trade Licenses, VAT, Corporate Tax registration via EmaraTax, and local payroll rules.
Yes. Module 9 is hands-on practice in Zoho Books, Xero, Tally Prime, and QuickBooks — from company and Chart of Accounts setup to invoice posting, expense entry, and basic banking entries.
Absolutely. If you've just moved to Dubai and started your own business, this program walks you through how UAE accounting, VAT, and tax reporting actually work, so you understand what you're legally required to do and how to stay compliant.
Yes. The VAT and Corporate Tax modules are built to be practical: you learn VAT calculation and filing, and Corporate Tax registration via EmaraTax, so you can manage your own company's — or your employer's — compliance without outsourcing it.
Yes. You learn output vs input VAT, VAT calculation, and VAT filing, plus Corporate Tax registration and basic compliance awareness — so you can handle both from your first day on the job.
Yes. Module 8 covers salary structure, basic salary & allowances, overtime basics, end of service benefits, the Wage Protection System (WPS), and how to record simple payroll entries.
Both. You can join in person at our Deira office in Dubai or attend the same live sessions online from anywhere — either way it is a practical workshop, and you work directly in real accounting software alongside your instructor.
Yes. You get an overview of the major platforms used in the UAE — Zoho Books, Xero, Tally Prime, and QuickBooks — so you can confidently choose and set up the right system for your business or client.
Yes. On completion you receive a KHDA Certification covering UAE bookkeeping, VAT & Corporate Tax basics, payroll, accounting software, and financial reporting.
Not at all. This program works well for business owners new to Dubai who need to understand local accounting and tax rules, accountants from abroad learning UAE-specific practice, and employees who want to file VAT and reports themselves instead of outsourcing. It's also a great fit if you're already working as an accountant and simply want to sharpen and systematize your UAE knowledge. No accounting background is required to start, and experienced accountants are just as welcome.
