What We Do

Bookkeeping that actually keeps up with your business.

Most UAE businesses treat bookkeeping as a compliance checkbox — something done once a year to satisfy the auditor. The result is stale numbers, missed VAT deadlines and no real visibility into how the business is performing.

ECOVIS JRB does it differently. We maintain your books on a monthly basis, deliver management accounts within 10 days of month-end, and keep your finances audit-ready, VAT-compliant and IFRS-aligned — all year round.

Whether you are a startup needing clean books for your first year-end, or an established SME with multiple entities, we have a service model that fits.

Why ECOVIS JRB

More than a bookkeeper.

What makes our accounting service different from a standalone bookkeeping firm.

01 —
Integrated with Tax & Audit

Your accounts are prepared with full awareness of your VAT, corporate tax and audit requirements — by the same firm that handles all three. No inconsistencies, no duplication of effort.

02 —
Senior Oversight on Every File

Every client file has senior manager or partner oversight. Your accounts are not prepared and filed by a junior with no review — there is always an experienced professional responsible for your numbers.

03 —
IFRS-Compliant Output

All statements prepared under IFRS — meeting the requirements of UAE free zone authorities, banks, auditors and investors. Not just cash-basis records.

04 —
Audit-Ready Books

Because we also provide audit services, we know exactly what auditors look for. Your accounts are maintained in a way that makes the annual audit fast, clean and without surprises.

05 —
Real-Time Cloud Access

24/7 access to your financial data through leading cloud platforms. You see your position as it is — not as it was three months ago when the last report was printed.

06 —
One Dedicated Accountant

You work with the same senior accountant who knows your business, your chart of accounts and your quirks. No rotating teams, no explaining your business from scratch every month.

Frequently Asked Questions

Accounting questions answered.

Do I need to maintain accounts for my UAE free zone company?
Yes. All UAE free zone companies are required to maintain proper accounting records and prepare financial statements in accordance with IFRS. These records must be retained for at least 5 years and are required for your annual statutory audit and as a condition of licence renewal.
What is WPS and does it apply to my business?
The Wages Protection System (WPS) requires employers to pay salaries through approved financial institutions and report payroll data to the Ministry of Human Resources. It applies to most mainland UAE businesses and many free zone entities. Non-compliance can result in fines and licence issues. We manage WPS submissions on your behalf.
What is the difference between bookkeeping and accounting?
Bookkeeping is the day-to-day recording of financial transactions. Accounting encompasses bookkeeping but also includes financial analysis, reporting, tax preparation and strategic financial advice. ECOVIS JRB provides the full spectrum — from daily transaction recording to CFO-level advisory.
How quickly can you take over from my existing accountant?
Very smoothly. We manage the entire handover process — obtaining prior year records, reviewing existing data for accuracy, migrating to our preferred cloud platform and ensuring continuity without disruption to your business.
What cloud accounting software do you use?
We work with all major cloud accounting platforms — Xero, QuickBooks, Zoho Books, Sage and SAP. We recommend the right platform based on your business size, complexity and existing systems. If you already use a specific platform, we work within it.
How much does outsourced accounting cost?
Our fees are tailored to the scope of work — the size of your business, transaction volume, reporting requirements and whether you need CFO advisory. We provide transparent, fixed monthly fee proposals after an initial scoping discussion. Most clients find outsourcing to ECOVIS JRB significantly more cost-effective than maintaining an in-house finance team of equivalent quality.
