01 / REQUIREMENT

Does Your ADGM Company Require an ADGM Audit?

Determining whether your ADGM entity requires an audit involves more than assessing its size. The analysis should consider the company’s legal form, activities, group structure, financial year, eligibility for an audit exemption and UAE Corporate Tax position.

While certain small, dormant and qualifying subsidiary companies may be exempt under the ADGM Companies Regulations 2020, these exemptions are subject to specific conditions. An entity seeking Qualifying Free Zone Person status must also maintain audited financial statements to meet the applicable Corporate Tax requirements, regardless of its revenue.

Where an audit is required or voluntarily undertaken, the company must appoint an ADGM Registered Auditor.

Audit Exemptions Under the ADGM Framework

Subject to the detailed conditions in the Companies Regulations 2020, an audit exemption may be available in the three situations below. Each is conditional, and none of them settles your Corporate Tax position.

An exemption under the ADGM Companies Regulations does not automatically resolve your UAE Corporate Tax obligations. Your QFZP position must be assessed separately.

QFZPs: Audited Financial Statements are Required Regardless of Revenue

An ADGM entity that is, or intends to be, a Qualifying Free Zone Person must prepare and maintain audited financial statements to benefit from the 0% Corporate Tax rate on Qualifying Income. ADGM’s guidance states that this applies regardless of revenue, including where revenue is below AED 50 million.

This means a company that may otherwise meet an ADGM small-company, subsidiary or dormancy exemption can still require audited financial statements for QFZP purposes. Where an ADGM company has its accounts audited, it must appoint an ADGM Registered Auditor.
