Reconciled every month
Books are closed and reconciled monthly, not at year end, so VAT and corporate tax positions are always based on current numbers.

How this service works
An FTA audit query rarely arrives with much warning, and the response window is fixed regardless of how prepared your records are on the day it lands. Businesses that keep reconciled, documented books throughout the year answer these queries in days; those that do not can take weeks assembling evidence that should already exist.
We draft the formal response, gather supporting documentation from your reconciled records, and represent you directly in correspondence with the Federal Tax Authority so the query is answered accurately and within the required timeframe.
Businesses selected for a routine FTA review, companies that have received a specific information request, and clients preparing proactively before a known area of risk is reviewed all use this service.
How the file moves
- We confirm the objective, list the documents required and quote government and service fees in writing.
- Your consultant prepares, types and submits the file, then follows it through each approval stage.
- You receive the outcome document, a copy for your records and a reminder before any renewal falls due.
Why clients use this desk
Audit file kept current
Supporting documentation for every material entry is filed as it happens, so an FTA or bank audit request never starts from a blank page.
Deadlines tracked for you
VAT, corporate tax and licence renewal deadlines are logged and flagged in advance, removing the risk of a late filing penalty.
Transparent, itemised fees
Government fees and our service fee are quoted separately and in writing before any engagement begins.
Frequently asked questions
What triggers a Federal Tax Authority audit?
Reviews can be routine, risk-based, or triggered by inconsistencies between filings. There is rarely one single cause, which is why keeping documentation current throughout the year matters more than reacting after a query lands.
What happens if we miss the FTA's response deadline?
Missing the response window can result in penalties or an unfavourable assessment. We prioritise these engagements to make sure your response is filed inside the deadline the authority has set.
