At Par keeps your UAE company's books closed and reconciled, prepares your VAT returns and your 9% corporate-tax return, gets your books ready for e-invoicing, and answers your finance questions — with a qualified accountant (ACCA) accountable. At Par prepares; you authorize and file through your own EmaraTax account. It never moves your money.
What At Par handles for you.
Your UAE corporate tax return is coming — is your file ready?
Corporate tax is 9% on taxable profit above AED 375,000. For a year ending 31 December 2025, the return is due 30 September 2026, filed through EmaraTax.
At Par closes your books for the period, prepares the return and the reconciled figures behind it, and flags whether Small Business Relief may apply — for you or your tax agent to confirm. You file through your own EmaraTax account: At Par prepares, you authorize.

How does UAE e-invoicing work — and what does At Par do about it?
The UAE is rolling out Peppol-based e-invoicing: a voluntary phase live since July 2026, then mandatory from 1 January 2027 for larger businesses (revenue AED 50 million and above) and from 1 July 2027 for smaller businesses.
At Par is not an accredited service provider (ASP) — your ASP transmits the invoice. What At Par does is make sure your books, your tax-registration details and your invoice data are clean and complete, so the handoff to your ASP works and your reporting reconciles.

On the mainland or in a free zone — is your file ready either way?
Free-zone companies can qualify for 0% corporate tax on qualifying income and 9% on the rest, if they meet the Qualifying Free Zone Person conditions.
At Par keeps your books so the split holds up — qualifying versus non-qualifying income, clean records, the substance behind the numbers. Whether you're in DMCC, IFZA, Meydan or on the mainland in Dubai or Abu Dhabi, you (or your tax agent) confirm your status; At Par prepares the books that stand behind it.

How often is my VAT reconciled and filed?
5% VAT, with records kept for five years. At Par reconciles your VAT return to your books before you file, so what you submit matches your ledger and your bank.
Already on QuickBooks, Xero or Zoho? At Par reviews and closes over it.
You don't switch systems. At Par connects to the books you already keep, reviews them, reconciles the exceptions and closes each month — so month-end is correct, not a question mark.
That's the gap most owners feel: the software moves the data, but nobody stands behind the result. At Par does — checked twice, an ACCA accountable.
One document in. Recorded, with its evidence.
Read, checked twice, recorded.
It balances · evidence attached · append-only. At Par records it — you still authorize the payment.
At Par prepares. Two checks agree. You authorize.
Two checks must agree before anything is recorded. Evidence on every figure. Append-only records. A qualified accountant (ACCA) is accountable. You authorize everything that moves money — At Par never moves it. At Par prepares your filings; you or your authorised tax agent submit them through the official channel.
Priced against the hire, not the software.
