About
A chartered-accountant practice in the UAE.
Consorata is a Dubai-based accounting and tax firm led by a Fellow of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA). We work for founders and international groups who need real financial reporting — not the generic register the UAE setup-shop market trades in.

What we do, plainly
IFRS-grade bookkeeping. UAE Corporate Tax registration, return filing, and advisory. VAT compliance, including for the more interesting edge cases (designated zones, cross-border services, Voluntary Disclosures). Audit liaison — we prepare; your independent auditor signs. Transfer-pricing documentation for groups in or above the Master File / Local File scope. Pillar Two readiness for in-scope MNEs. Specialist work on the UAE side of international group structures, and on digital-asset accounting for businesses that touch crypto.
We work in English and Russian, both at native financial register. Whether the conversation is with your bank, your foreign auditor, your investors, or the Federal Tax Authority — we speak the language of the conversation.
Why we exist
The UAE accounting market is dominated by setup-shops that learned bookkeeping last year and by Big Four practices priced for entities four times the typical client's size. The middle — chartered-accountant-grade work at owner-managed-business pricing — is thinly served. That is the gap Consorata occupies.
We took a position early: refuse engagements where we would be expected to sign off on prior-period work we did not do, refuse engagements that ask us to under-document positions for the convenience of group narrative, refuse to compete on price with firms that produce management-account-grade output. The work we take is the work we can defend in any audit, in any jurisdiction.
How we work
Continuous bookkeeping with twelve clean monthly closes per year. Year-end audit on a general ledger that already ties out, not a December scramble. Quarterly VAT returns filed with internal target dates well before the FTA deadline. CT returns prepared from audited financials within the nine-month window without rushed analysis on opening balances. Transfer-pricing documentation maintained as a contemporaneous file, not retro-fitted at FTA query time.
For groups: we are the UAE-side counterparty to your existing finance team and overseas advisors. We do not displace them; we integrate with them. The reporting package we send upward is built to your group's format and to its consolidation calendar.
What we do not do
We do not provide tax-evasion advice, opacity structuring, or schemes that depend on beneficial-ownership obscurity. The UAE is not a tax haven and we do not market it as one. We do not take engagements where the client refuses to register for Corporate Tax, refuses an external auditor when one is required, or asks for books prepared to bank-loan-marketing rather than IFRS. The cost of declining these engagements is the price of being the firm we actually are.
