Key points in our review process

1. Initial triage: confirm assessment details, deadlines for objection, and identify immediate risks. 2. Document collection: gather returns, invoices, contracts, bank records, and prior correspondence. 3. Technical analysis: test the authority's calculations, re-run computations, and assess legal/technical positions. 4. Quantification: estimate best-case and downside exposures, including penalties and interest where applicable. 5. Response preparation: prepare a clear, factual objection or response package with supporting evidence. 6. Engagement support: represent or support your communications with the FTA or other UAE authorities and liaise with advisors where needed. 7. Escalation planning: advise on next steps if the objection is rejected, including further administrative or legal options.

FAQs

How long does a review take?

Turnaround depends on complexity and document availability. Simple VAT assessment reviews can take a few days; complex corporate tax matters may take several weeks. We provide an estimated timeline after the initial triage.

Do you represent clients before the FTA or other authorities?

Yes. We prepare objection packages and can engage directly with authorities on your behalf, or work alongside your in-house or external tax advisors.

What if I missed the objection deadline?

Missed deadlines reduce options but do not always eliminate them. We will assess whether late submissions, mitigation arguments, or other remedies are available.

How much will a review cost?

Costs depend on scope and complexity. Contact AL SAHRAA for a tailored quote based on your specific assessment and documentation.

Is there a guarantee I will succeed?

No credible adviser can guarantee outcomes. We commit to a thorough, evidence-based review and to presenting the strongest possible position on your behalf.
