Tax Compliance & Excise by ASCA Audit and Advisory
Beyond corporate tax and VAT, UAE businesses face a web of ongoing obligations: excise tax on specific goods, economic substance requirements, tax residency documentation and the ever-present possibility of an FTA audit. Falling behind on any of them is expensive.
ASCA Audit and Advisory acts as your ongoing compliance partner — monitoring deadlines, maintaining documentation and representing you before the FTA — so that tax administration never distracts you from running the business.
Our Tax Compliance & Excise Services
Tax Residency Certificate (TRC)
Preparation and submission of TRC applications for companies and individuals seeking treaty benefits, including assembling the financial statements, tenancy and bank documentation the FTA requires.
Tax Audit Support & Representation
When the FTA opens an audit, we manage the process end-to-end: document preparation, query responses, technical position papers and penalty mitigation.
Excise Tax Registration & Filing
Registration, product registration and periodic return filing for businesses dealing in tobacco, energy drinks, carbonated and sweetened beverages, and e-smoking products.

Assessment of whether your activities fall within ESR scope and preparation of notifications and reports where required.
