We Test Your Controls, Processes, and Financial Activity

Bestax provides independent reviews of how your business runs. We examine your controls, your risks, and your rules. We report directly to you, not to the government.

We provide two kinds of audit.

Internal audits

Internal audits report to management and the board, and our own team delivers them fully.

Through our network

External audits

External audits produce signed reports for banks and licence authorities. We deliver those through our registered auditor affiliations.

We Audit Corporates, Family Groups, and Regulated Companies

We provide the internal auditing services in Dubai that regulated firms require and growing companies choose. Firms regulated in DIFC and ADGM must maintain an internal audit function. Boards with audit committees expect one as well. We serve both.

Growing companies, family groups, and investor-ready businesses also engage us. We catch problems early, while fixes still cost little.

Choose the Internal Audit Your Business Needs

  1. Financial Audits

    We check your accounting records, transactions, and reports. You learn whether your numbers are accurate and complete.

  2. Operational Audits

    We review how work actually flows through your business. We identify waste, delays, and duplicated work, and we measure their cost.

  3. Compliance Audits

    UAE rules change often. We test whether your business follows the laws that apply to it, before a regulator does.

  4. IT Audits

    We review your systems, data security, and access controls. We flag weak passwords, open access rights, and missing backups.

  5. Risk-Based Audits

    We rank your risks first, then audit the largest ones. Your audit budget targets the highest-risk areas.

  6. AML Compliance Audits

    Money laundering rules apply to more businesses than many owners expect. We test your checks against the standards set by the UAE Central Bank (opens in a new tab).

  7. Tax Compliance Reviews

    We test your VAT and corporate tax records the way the FTA would. Weak spots get fixed before they cost you.

  8. Fraud and Control Checks

    We test cash handling, approvals, and payments for gaps. Most fraud begins in areas with little oversight.

How We Combine Audit and Tax in One Review

We are one of the few internal audit firms Dubai businesses can engage for both controls and tax. As an FTA-approved tax agency, we review your VAT and corporate tax records inside the same audit.

We spot wrong VAT treatment and missed corporate tax adjustments. We also flag records that would fail a review by the Federal Tax Authority (opens in a new tab). The same audit that strengthens your operations also protects you from tax penalties.

What the combined review finds

  • Wrong VAT treatment
  • Missed corporate tax adjustments
  • Records that would fail an FTA review

You receive both in a single engagement.

How We Work, Step by Step

  1. Step 1

    Risk assessment and plan.

    We map where your business could break. The audit plan targets those areas first.

  2. Step 2

    Fieldwork.

    We review documents, interview your team, and test sample transactions. Every finding is backed by evidence.

  3. Step 3

    Clear findings.

    Each finding answers five questions: the issue, the rule, the cause, the cost, and the fix.

  4. Step 4

    Management report.

    You get a plain language report with fixes ranked by risk. Boards and audit committees get their own summary.

  5. Step 5

    Follow up.

    We review progress until every fix is complete. Open findings add no value, so we follow each one to closure.

Our work follows the COSO framework for internal controls and the 2025 Global Internal Audit Standards. These are the same standards used by the largest firms.

Choose the Bestax Audit Model for Your Business

  • Fully outsourced

    We become your internal audit function. No hiring, no training, no fixed salaries.

  • Co-sourced

    You keep your team, and we work beside it. We add skills your team does not have yet, like IT or AML testing.

  • One-off reviews

    A single deep check of one area, one branch, or one problem. Fast and focused.

Our internal audit consulting services also cover advice: building controls, writing SOPs, and training your team. The result is more than a list of findings. It is a stronger business.

  2. A risk register you can keep and update.
  3. A fix list with owners and dates.
  4. Suggested procedures for weak areas.
  5. A follow-up tracker until everything closes.

How We Schedule Your Audits

We set the schedule around your risk, rather than a template. For most businesses, we run a full audit once a year. For high-risk areas, such as cash and inventory, we add quarterly checks. We also review after major changes: new systems, new branches, new managers, or rapid growth.
