External Audit & Independent Assurance Services

External Audit Services Aligned with UAE Regulatory and Licensing Requirements

Our external audit services support mainland companies, Free Zone entities, foreign branches, and regulated organizations across the UAE. We ensure that financial statements are audited in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards and the specific requirements of licensing authorities, Free Zone regulators, and other supervisory bodies.

Through disciplined audit planning and execution, we verify accounting records, assess compliance with statutory obligations, and confirm that financial disclosures accurately reflect the entity’s financial position and performance. Our audit opinions are designed to withstand regulatory review and support business continuity.

Independent Assurance for Financial Reporting and Governance

Independent assurance enhances confidence in reported financial information and governance practices. Essence Accounting and Tax Consultancy LLC provides assurance services that validate the integrity of financial statements, management representations, and key accounting judgments.

Our work focuses on evaluating the reliability of financial reporting processes, the consistency of accounting policies, and the adequacy of disclosures. This level of assurance supports informed decision-making by shareholders, lenders, investors, and regulatory authorities.

Risk-Focused Audit Methodology and Control Evaluation

We apply a risk-based audit methodology that prioritizes areas with higher financial, operational, and compliance risk. By gaining a deep understanding of your business model, industry environment, and internal processes, we tailor audit procedures to address material risks efficiently and effectively.

As part of our external audit engagements, we evaluate internal controls over financial reporting and highlight areas where control enhancements may be required. Our findings are communicated constructively to management, supporting stronger governance without compromising audit independence.

External Audit Support for Tax and Regulatory Compliance

Audited financial statements form the foundation for corporate tax filings, VAT returns, and regulatory submissions in the UAE. Our external audits are performed with awareness of UAE corporate tax requirements and Federal Tax Authority expectations, ensuring consistency between audited accounts and tax filings.

This integrated approach reduces the risk of regulatory discrepancies, supports audit readiness for tax authorities, and strengthens overall compliance integrity.

Assurance Services for Stakeholder and Third-Party Requirements

Beyond statutory needs, external audits and independent assurance services are often required by banks, investors, joint venture partners, and international group headquarters. Essence Accounting and Tax Consultancy LLC provides assurance reports that support financing arrangements, shareholder reporting, investment transactions, and internal governance frameworks.

Our reports are prepared with clarity, professionalism, and credibility, meeting the expectations of sophisticated third-party users.

Commitment to Independence, Ethics, and Professional Standards

Independence and objectivity are central to our external audit and assurance services. We maintain strict ethical standards, confidentiality protocols, and professional judgment in every engagement. Our assurance opinions are based solely on audit evidence and applicable standards, providing stakeholders with confidence in their reliability.

We work collaboratively with client teams while preserving the independence required for credible assurance outcomes.
