We help UAE businesses prepare, validate and submit WPS-compliant salary files to banks and payroll providers, resolve file errors, and reconcile salary payments to reduce delays and non-compliance risk.
Overview

Frequently asked questions
What is WPS and why is a correct salary file important?
WPS is the UAE system for regulated salary transfers. A correctly formatted and validated salary file reduces bank rejections, avoids payment delays and helps maintain compliance.
How quickly can you prepare and submit a salary file?
Typical turnaround is 1–3 business days depending on data completeness and bank testing needs. Urgent deadlines can often be accommodated with prior notice.
Can you work with our payroll software or third-party payroll provider?
Yes. We accept exports from common accounting and payroll systems and coordinate directly with third-party payroll providers or your bank as needed.
What happens if a bank rejects the salary file?
We diagnose rejection reasons, correct the source data or file formatting, revalidate and resubmit. We keep stakeholders informed until the issue is resolved.
Do you handle payment reconciliation after the file is accepted?
Yes. We provide a reconciliation report showing accepted transactions, outstanding items and next-step recommendations for any discrepancies.
