Stock audit services in Dubai refer to the process of reviewing and verifying a company’s physical inventory and comparing it to the financial records to ensure accuracy and identify discrepancies. This is the most important part of inventory management and financial reporting, our team of experts can provide reliable and efficient stock audit services to help businesses in Dubai stay on top of their inventory and finances.
Inventory is one of the most important assets of a company. In the supply chain process, inventory management protects the company from stock-outs, controls deliveries to multiple locations, and keeps accurate records. Effective inventory management is essential for every small, medium, or large company. The UAE government has set authoritarian laws and regulations on the stock-checking process. Therefore, it is advisable for every company to outsource to experts in the field of stock audit in Dubai and save their ears from penalties for non-compliance.
A stock audit can also be described as an inventory check. Inventory control is a routine business activity, but sometimes management fails to regulate proper inventory recording and verification in accordance with auditing laws. To overcome this problem, companies choose to hire professional Audit Firms in The UAE to prove the accuracy, maintenance, and ownership of inventories. The main objective of an inventory audit is to gain a better understanding of the current inventory records and to reconcile existing inventory records.
An inventory/stock audit is carried out to analyze the inventory levels of a company with the recorded inventory records. It ensures that the financial records of the stock are accurately maintained in the accounting software database. The company deals with different types of stock such as fast-moving stock, slow-moving stock, damaged stock, unserviceable stock, and obsolete stock.
Therefore, once a year or twice a year, organizations should apply an inventory control process to properly manage the classification of these inventories. This is usually carried out by banks and financial institutions on behalf of their corporate customers who have used these stocks to secure loans.
The stock verification process will check whether the stocks are expired, obsolete, or damaged. Our stock verification service in Dubai also ensures that both surplus and shortage stock is accounted for. We check your stock statistics and help management protect stock from damage and fraud.
The accuracy of inventory records is also very important for a robust accounting system and MIS reporting. These are the key aspects of an inventory control report in the United Arab Emirates:

In this way, the existence, accuracy and rightful ownership of the company’s goods are guaranteed.
Our stock audit services in Dubai, UAE, ensure compliance with International Accounting Standard 2 for your stock check. Under IAS 2, inventories should be valued at a lower cost or net realizable value (NRV). It specifies allowable costing methods, including specific identification (in some cases), accounting for most types of stock, first-in-first-out (FIFO) accounting, and weighted average cost.
The objective of IFRS 9 which was implemented after January 01, 2018, is to prescribe the cost of inventories, cost formulae for calculating inventories, inventory accounting treatment, and recognition of expenses, including NRV.
