What clients say
What clients say
Sergey took over our books mid-year and resolved a Corporate Tax registration issue our previous bookkeeper had not flagged. Reporting is now on schedule and audit-ready.
We chose Consorata after two unsuccessful experiences with Russian-speaking advisors in Dubai. The work is done at a chartered-accountant level and the communication is in proper financial Russian — not translated marketing copy.
FAQ
Common questions
Do I need to register for Corporate Tax if my Free Zone company has no UAE-source income?
Yes. Under FTA Decision 3 of 2024, all Taxable Persons must register, including Free Zone Persons and most Exempt Persons. Whether you owe tax is a separate question — registration itself is mandatory.
Can I keep using my existing bookkeeper and just engage you for tax?
Yes, but it is rarely the right answer. Most CT and VAT issues we see start as bookkeeping issues. We can review, fix, and either keep your current setup or take it over.
Can you handle the UAE entity inside a wider international group structure?
Yes — this is a core part of what we do. We act as the UAE-side accounting and tax team and interface professionally with your foreign advisors, parent-company auditors, and group finance.
Do you work in Russian?
Yes — natively, in writing and verbally, including with counterparties correspondence as required.
What does it cost?
Bookkeeping and CT return filing prices are published on our pricing page. We quote firm prices, not ranges.
