CFO-Led Finance, Tax and Compliance for UAE Businesses
Finline operates your finance function as a defined system, with a five-day close on a published calendar, VAT, Corporate Tax and e-invoicing produced from a single ledger, and a named senior reviewer accountable for every position taken. We run the function end to end, or work alongside your existing team, your ERP and your auditor.
In Partnership With
Comarch is a global software house with over 25 years in e-invoicing and electronic data interchange, exchanging more than 300 million documents a year for clients in 80+ countries, and an Accredited Service Provider (ASP) designated by the UAE Federal Tax Authority for the country's e-invoicing mandate. As a Comarch partner, Finline connects your business to accredited e-invoicing infrastructure and handles everything around it: mapping your invoice data to the required format, integrating it with your accounting system, and keeping submissions clean as the mandate phases in. One partner for the compliance and the books behind it.
Meydan Free Zone is a Dubai-based free zone offering fast, flexible business setup and licensing for companies of all sizes. As a Meydan FZ partner, Finline handles the full incorporation process, from license selection and document preparation to ongoing compliance and accounting, so your business is operational and fully compliant from day one.
Moore JFC is a UAE tax and advisory firm and a member of the Moore Global network, listed on the Ministry of Finance's pre-approved register of e-invoicing service providers. Its JFC Fatoora platform is a certified Peppol Access Point: it validates invoices against MoF rules, converts them to PINT AE, and archives them in UAE cloud storage under ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type 2 controls. Finline is not an ASP. We work with accredited partners and assess against the full accredited list, so the platform recommendation follows your invoicing profile, not our revenue. Where JFC Fatoora is the right fit, Finline runs the data mapping, the ERP integration, and the ledger behind it.
Qashio is a Central Bank of UAE-licensed spend management platform that issues smart prepaid Visa cards with granular spend controls, real-time approval workflows, and automated receipt capture. As a Qashio implementation partner, Finline manages the full setup and onboarding for your business: configuring spend categories, mapping card transactions to your chart of accounts, and integrating expense data directly into your accounting records. Real-time visibility across every team. Nothing to reconcile manually.
Shufti Pro is an AI-powered KYC, KYB, and AML verification platform operating in 230+ countries, supporting 10,000+ ID document types across 150 languages with sub-60-second turnaround. As a Shufti Pro partner, Finline integrates identity verification directly into your onboarding workflow, ensuring your business meets UAE regulatory requirements from day one, without friction.
Zoho is a business software suite spanning finance, CRM, HR, and operations, used by more than 100 million users worldwide, with FTA-approved accounting and direct EmaraTax VAT filing for the UAE. As a Zoho Finance, Technology and Integration partner, Finline implements and operates the stack end to end: Zoho Books configured with a chart of accounts and VAT rules built for your sector, connected to the rest of your Zoho applications, with monthly close run on top of it. We're also developing value-added features on top of Zoho that extend what it does natively for Finline clients.

Four services delivered from a single ledger
CFO Services & Advisory
CFO-level advisory led by a finance director with 30 years running finance functions, with MIS and dashboards as the instrumentation beneath it. Decisions on capital, cash, controls and board reporting, drawn from one reconciled ledger.
E-Invoicing
We map your invoices to the 51 mandatory PINT-AE fields, match the platform to how you actually bill, and wire transmission into the same ledger your VAT return comes from. Compliance and the close, run as one project.
Tax & Compliance
A named senior specialist takes every VAT and Corporate Tax position, records the basis in writing, and defends it if the FTA asks. Both run off one ledger, so they reconcile.
Accounting & Operations
Accounting run as five defined processes rather than delegated tasks: record to report, order to cash, procure to pay, treasury and master data, closed to a five-day calendar.
What distinguishes how we operate
One Ledger, One Owner
Accounting, tax, e-invoicing and CFO reporting are produced by the same team from the same ledger. There is no handoff between vendors at which a figure is restated, and no ambiguity about who responds when the FTA or your auditor raises a query.
Automation Built by Specialists
Reconciliations, filings and reporting cycles run on structured automation built by the people accountable for the output. The platforms are configured and operated by us rather than resold to you. The tools move quickly; the positions remain with a named senior reviewer.

How an engagement begins
- Step 1
A conversation with a senior finance specialist
An initial discussion of where your close, your filings or your reporting is currently under strain. You receive a considered view on what warrants attention first and what resolving it is worth.
- Step 2
A structured review, delivered in writing
A review scoped to whichever area is under pressure, whether that is accounting operations, tax, e-invoicing or CFO reporting. You receive a written findings memo setting out the exposure, the recoverable position, and what remediation requires.
- Step 3
A published price, or a scoped one
Standard packages are published for straightforward scopes. Everything beyond them follows scope. Once the review establishes what operating the function requires, you receive a fixed monthly figure and a written statement of what it covers, before you commit to anything.
- Step 4
We operate the function, or operate alongside your team
Work starts on a published calendar, with a named owner on each step and a named senior reviewer on every position taken. Your team, your ERP and your auditor remain in place.

Atul Bhargava
UAE SMEs are managing five regulatory obligations at once. The businesses that have assigned all of them to one person are not underprepared. They are structurally exposed.
Build governance that scalesStart with a conversation
A close that runs past day fifteen. A tax position no one in the business can substantiate. Consolidation held together in spreadsheets ahead of a lender or investor review. An e-invoicing deadline with no owner assigned to it. Whichever applies, the first step is a conversation with a senior finance specialist rather than a proposal. Pricing follows scope, so you will have the figure before you commit to anything.
