Compliance and corporate governance
Every obligation your licence carries — listed, dated and kept current, so nothing lapses quietly.
Who this is for
- Companies whose obligations are spread across several authorities
- Owners never given a list of what their licence actually requires
- Businesses whose shareholders or directors changed and were never filed
- Groups holding several entities under different authorities
Not the right fit if: you only need one specific filing made — ask for that filing on its own.
What we handle
- An obligation register built from your own licence and authority
- Statutory registers set up and kept — shareholders, directors, beneficial owners
- Changes to ownership, management or address prepared and filed
- Renewal dates tracked and raised with you before they arrive
- Economic substance and beneficial ownership submissions where they apply
- Anti-money-laundering registrations where your activity requires them
- A written record of what was filed and when
How it works
- 01 We list what applies to you Built from your licence and your authority, not from a general checklist.
- 02 We find what is open Missed filings, unrecorded changes, registers that were never kept.
- 03 We bring it current The gaps closed first, in the order that matters.
- 04 We keep the calendar Each obligation dated, raised with you in advance, and filed.
What it costs
Compliance is priced by how many obligations your structure actually carries, which is why we build the register before quoting. Authority fees, and any penalty for a past lapse, are set by the authority, passed on at cost, and confirmed in writing for your case before we act. Bringing a neglected file up to date is quoted separately from keeping a current one current.
- How many entities you hold and under which authorities
- Whether past filings are outstanding
- Whether your activity carries additional registrations
- How often ownership or management changes
Indicative. Authority fees are set by the authority and revised without notice. Last reviewed 19 September 2026.
Documents you will need
The exact list depends on your activity and the authority. We send you a written checklist for your own case before anything is filed.
- Trade licence and establishment card for each entity
- Memorandum of association and any amendments
- Shareholder and director details, including any beneficial owner
- Previous filings and correspondence with the authority
- Tenancy contract or Ejari for the licensed address
Questions
The authority decides, and penalties differ by authority and by filing. The more common consequence is quieter — a renewal held up, or an amendment refused until the older one is cleared. We tell you what is outstanding and what the authority says it costs to clear, in writing.
Some will, some will not. Obligations follow the licence and the activity rather than the headcount. That is exactly why we build the register from your own licence instead of handing you a generic list.
Yes. We ask for what you hold, check it against the authority's own record, and tell you where the two disagree before you commit to anything.
No. Accounting is your numbers; compliance is your standing with the authorities. They meet at the point where a filing needs figures, which is why clients often take both.
Indicative. Nothing here is legal, tax or immigration advice. Last reviewed 19 September 2026.
