Introduction
As the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) continues to tighten compliance across the UAE, businesses can no longer afford to leave their accounting and tax obligations until the last minute. Whether you’re a startup or an established company, being “FTA-ready” means more than just submitting VAT or Corporate Tax returns—it means keeping your books clean, your documents accessible, and your operations audit-proof.
At CZ Accounting, we help UAE businesses stay one step ahead with structured, year-round compliance support.
Why FTA Compliance is More Critical in 2025
✅ Corporate Tax is now fully enforced, with strict registration and filing deadlines
✅ VAT audits are increasing, especially for companies with inconsistent filings
✅ Penalty waivers are now conditional and time-bound
✅ FTA is conducting more surprise inspections and cross-checks across sectors
Failing to meet even one compliance requirement can result in penalties ranging from AED 1,000 to AED 50,000 or more.
The FTA Compliance Essentials Checklist
Use this to assess your company’s readiness:
☑️ Corporate Tax Registration completed via EmaraTax
☑️ First Corporate Tax return planned within the 7-month deadline
☑️ VAT registration (if applicable) and returns submitted on time
☑️ Bank reconciliations completed monthly
☑️ Clean and accurate general ledger
☑️ Five years of financial records archived securely
☑️ All invoices issued with proper tax details
