Audit & Assurance
Audit and assurance engagements are delivered by Falcon International Consulting & Auditing (FICA), our founding entity, an approved auditor in the UAE for over two decades. Banks price facilities on your audit; free zones renew licenses against it; buyers open diligence with it. We treat it accordingly: as a credibility asset, not a compliance chore.

Statutory / External Audit
Most UAE mainland companies must maintain audited financial statements under the Commercial Companies Law, and many free zones require annual audited accounts for license renewal. Entities claiming Qualifying Free Zone Person status for the 0% corporate tax rate must prepare audited financial statements. Beyond obligation: an audit signed by a firm banks recognise moves your file faster everywhere.

FAQ
Who signs our audit opinion?
Falcon International Consulting and Auditing, the same firm, the same licence, and the same signing discipline it has maintained in Dubai for over two decades under its Ministry of Economy approval. One firm, one name, one standard.
Is an audit mandatory for my company?
For most mainland companies and many free zone entities, yes, and QFZP tax status requires it regardless. We confirm your entity's exact requirement in the first conversation, free of charge.
What will you need from us?
One document request list at planning: trial balance, ledgers, bank statements, agreements, registers. We hold ourselves to asking once.
Can the same firm audit us and advise us?
Independence rules restrict certain combinations and we observe them strictly, including declining work where a combination would compromise the audit. We will tell you plainly where the line sits for your situation.
