UAE businesses grapple with new taxes and fragmented data

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Businesses in the United Arab Emirates face significant accounting challenges due to new tax regulations and fragmented financial data. Many companies still rely on Excel for accounting, which is inadequate for the evolving requirements, including VAT and federal corporate tax. Local accounting software often lacks necessary modules for UAE-specific processes like salary payments, and global software may not be certified by the FTA. To navigate these issues, businesses are advised to prioritize standardized data formats like MT940, reconstruct financial records diligently, and carefully select accounting software that meets local compliance needs.
