The most expensive tax issue is the one nobody tested before it went into a return. The second is the one nobody defended properly when the FTA called.
Our FTA disputes work includes a standing litigation-support mandate and live cassation appeals: Emirates NBD, the Hypermarket appeals, Little World, and a cassation matter referred through Dr. Mohamed Lari. Tax disputes in the UAE move quickly through three court tiers. We prepare at first instance for what cassation will ask.
On the advisory side, corporate-tax registration, including penalty remediation where a registration went in late or wrong. Entity classification for free-zone qualifying-income analysis. VAT registration and treatment across healthcare, real estate and financial services, and the supporting documentation the FTA will accept.
“First-instance preparation is cassation preparation in advance.”
Where the technical computation sits with the client's tax accountants or external auditors, we work to their numbers. The legal documentation, the FTA engagement and the litigation stay with us.
