UAE Company Liquidation & Audit

Close your UAE mainland or free zone company with clear, compliant liquidation and audit support.

A clean, compliant exit

Company liquidation and audit support in the UAE

Closing a UAE company – or preparing it for a mandatory audit – is a legal process, not paperwork you can skip. We help mainland and free zone businesses appoint the right liquidator, complete liquidation audits, clear FTA and immigration obligations, and cancel the trade licence cleanly so fees and liabilities do not keep running.

Quick answers

FAQ

Can I just stop renewing my licence?No. An inactive-but-not-cancelled company can still attract fees, notices and compliance exposure.
Do I need a liquidator?Mainland LLCs and many free zone structures require a licensed liquidator or equivalent appointment. We confirm the rule first.
Is a liquidation audit mandatory?Often yes for mainland LLCs and several free zones. Dormant strike-offs may be lighter only with written authority confirmation.
What about VAT and Corporate Tax?Final returns and FTA deregistration are commonly required. We align accounting, audit and tax steps.
