Sales Audit Services UAE

Most retail leases in UAE malls include a turnover rent clause (where the tenant pays a percentage of gross turnover if it exceeds base rent). Landlords require an independent certified turnover certificate to verify reported sales figures objectively.

Our certificates comply with the standard reporting requirements of Emaar Malls (Dubai Mall), Majid Al Futtaim (Mall of the Emirates, City Centre), Nakheel (Nakheel Mall, Ibn Battuta), Aldar, Meraas, and Dubai Duty Free.

Permitted deductions depend on your specific lease agreement, but typically include output VAT (5%), genuine customer refunds and merchandise returns, employee discounts, and credit card interchange charges where expressly allowed.
