Outsourced Accounting

Outsourced accounting means delegating your business's accounting, bookkeeping, and tax compliance to an external specialist firm rather than hiring in-house staff. The provider manages financial records, prepares reports, files tax returns, and gives expert financial guidance — at a fraction of the cost of a full-time team.

Why UAE Businesses Outsource Accounting

With VAT, corporate tax, ESR, and free zone compliance all in play, the accounting burden on UAE SMEs has grown significantly. Outsourcing gives businesses: access to a full team of professionals, FTA-compliant record keeping, monthly management accounts, and the ability to scale without adding headcount.

Cost Comparison: Outsourced vs In-House

A junior in-house accountant in Dubai costs AED 5,000–8,000 per month, excluding visa, insurance, and software. A complete Finanshels package starts from AED 299 per month, covering bookkeeping, VAT filing, and monthly management accounts.

What's Included

Monthly bookkeeping and reconciliation, VAT return filing, corporate tax preparation and filing, monthly management accounts, financial statement preparation, and dedicated accountant support.
