Our Bookkeeping Solutions
Maintaining Journals and Ledgers
Every transaction needs to be recorded correctly, categorized properly, and posted on time. We maintain your journals and general ledger on a consistent schedule, so your books are never weeks behind and always reflect the true state of the business. This consistency is what makes monthly reporting and tax filing possible without last-minute corrections.
- Daily or weekly transaction entry
- Consistent chart of accounts categorization
- Ledger reviews to catch errors early
Accounts Payable and Receivable Handling
Cash flow problems often start with poorly tracked payables and receivables. Our team manages your outgoing payments and incoming invoices, keeping vendor and customer balances accurate and flagging overdue items before they affect cash flow. Clear aging visibility also makes it easier to plan payments and follow up on collections proactively.
- Vendor invoice tracking and payment scheduling
- Customer invoicing and collections tracking
- Aging reports for payables and receivables
Payroll Maintenance
Payroll touches compliance, cash flow, and employee trust all at once, so it needs to be handled precisely every cycle. We maintain payroll records accurately and on schedule, keeping them aligned with your accounting records and statutory requirements. Errors in payroll records rarely stay contained to payroll, they tend to surface in reconciliations and reports too.
- Monthly payroll processing support
- WPS-aligned payroll record keeping
- Payroll reconciliation with the general ledger
Fixed Asset Management
Assets that are not tracked properly distort your financial statements and complicate tax filings. We maintain a fixed asset register, track depreciation, and ensure asset records stay aligned with your books and your Corporate Tax obligations. This becomes especially important as companies grow and acquire more equipment, vehicles, or property.
- Fixed asset register setup and maintenance
- Depreciation scheduling and tracking
- Asset disposal and addition documentation
Bank Reconciliation
Bank reconciliation catches errors, missing transactions, and discrepancies before they compound into bigger accounting problems later. We reconcile your bank and card accounts on a regular cycle, so your cash position in the books always matches reality. Owners get a dependable answer to “how much cash do we actually have” at any point in time.
- Monthly bank and card reconciliation
- Discrepancy identification and resolution
- Cash position summaries for owners
Online Bookkeeping and Reporting Access
Modern businesses need bookkeeping that works remotely, not just in person. Our online bookkeeping services in Dubai give you real-time access to your records through cloud accounting software, so you can check your numbers whenever you need to, from any location, without waiting for a scheduled visit.
- Cloud-based bookkeeping platforms
- Real-time access to updated records
- Remote support without office visits required

Frequently Asked Questions
What do bookkeeping services in Dubai include?
These services typically include recording daily transactions, maintaining ledgers, managing payables and receivables, payroll record keeping, bank reconciliation, and preparing VAT-ready financial records for accountants or tax filings. We scope each of these based on your transaction volume.
How much does a bookkeeping service in Dubai cost?
Pricing depends on transaction volume, the number of bank accounts, and whether payroll or fixed asset tracking is needed. We provide a tailored quote after reviewing your business, so pricing reflects actual workload rather than a flat, one-size-fits-all package.
What is the difference between accounting and bookkeeping services in Dubai?
Bookkeeping focuses on recording and organizing daily transactions accurately, while accounting builds on those records to prepare financial statements, analysis, and tax filings. We offer both, so records flow smoothly from bookkeeping into accounting and tax compliance without gaps.
Are online bookkeeping services in Dubai as reliable as in-person bookkeeping?
Yes. Online bookkeeping uses secure cloud accounting platforms that give you real-time access to records, often with faster turnaround than in-person visits, while maintaining the same accuracy, reconciliation, and compliance standards.
How often are my books updated?
Most clients receive daily or weekly transaction updates with monthly reconciliation and review. Update frequency is agreed upon at the start of the engagement, based on your transaction volume, reporting needs, and preferred communication schedule.
Can you fix backlog bookkeeping that is months behind?
Yes. Our team reviews missing or disorganized records, reconstructs historical transactions from bank statements and supporting documents, and brings your books current before transitioning you to ongoing, regularly scheduled bookkeeping support.
Is SONABIZ an FTA-approved provider of bookkeeping services in Dubai?
Yes. SONABIZ is an FTA-approved tax agency, which means our bookkeeping service in Dubai is maintained with UAE VAT and Corporate Tax compliance requirements in mind from the very first entry, not adjusted or corrected later.
Do I need bookkeeping services if I already have accounting software?
Yes, in most cases. Accounting software alone does not guarantee accurate categorization, timely reconciliation, or compliance-ready records. Bookkeeping services ensure the software is used correctly and consistently, which is where most recording errors occur.
