Why DMCC Audits Matter?
If your company operates within Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC), submitting audited financial statements annually is mandatory— irrespective of whether you had zero revenue or were inactive. Failure to comply could lead to penalties, license suspension, or blacklisting.
Who Must File DMCC Audits?
All licensed entities in DMCC Free Zone must mandatorily file annual audited financials, including:
• Free Zone Companies (FZCOs)
• DMCC Branches (local or foreign)
• Representative Offices
• Offshore Companies with DMCC Presence
UHY James provides a complete audit checklist and pre-audit assistance. At UHY James, our team of experts ensure your DMCC audit is timely, compliant, and stress-free and aligned with the latest DMCC and UAE authority regulations.
Submission Deadline: The submission deadline for DMCC audits is within 6 months of your company’s financial year-end.
It is important to note that FY 2024 deadline has been extended to: 30th September 2025
