Audit Support and Readiness in the UAE

Whether your free zone requires audited accounts, your bank has asked for them, or Corporate Tax now makes them necessary, the audit goes faster and cheaper when your records are ready. Safeway prepares audit-ready financial statements and supporting schedules and liaises with your licensed auditor on your behalf. To be clear, the independent audit opinion is signed by a licensed UAE auditor; we prepare the accounts and manage the process.

What audit support covers

• IFRS financial statements prepared and reconciled
• Audit schedules, lead sheets and supporting documents
• Responses to auditor queries and adjustments
• Coordination with an approved UAE audit firm
• A clean handover so the audit runs to timetable

Why preparation pays

Auditors charge for the time they spend. Well-prepared accounts and schedules reduce back-and-forth, shorten the audit, and lower the risk of qualifications or surprises.

How Safeway helps

We get your books and statements audit-ready and sit between you and the auditor so your time is protected.

Frequently asked questions

Does Safeway carry out the audit?

No. Safeway prepares audit-ready financial statements and supporting schedules and coordinates with a licensed UAE auditor, who signs the independent audit opinion.

When are audited accounts required?

For Corporate Tax, when revenue exceeds AED 50 million, and for every Qualifying Free Zone Person. Many free zones and banks also require them under their own rules.

How does preparation reduce audit cost?

Auditors bill for time. Ready statements, schedules and documents reduce queries and shorten the audit.
