What Year-End Tax Preparation Involves

Closing Your Books

All transactions for the tax period must be recorded, categorized, and reconciled. Accruals, prepayments, and provisions must be posted. The trial balance must agree to the supporting records.

Tax Adjustments

Your accounting profit is the starting point, not the answer. The CT law requires specific adjustments including adding back non-deductible expenses, excluding exempt income, and applying loss relief. Each adjustment must be documented.

Return Preparation

The adjusted figures feed into your Corporate Tax return, which must be completed in the format required by the FTA and submitted through EmaraTax.

Everything Included in Your Year-End Engagement

Common Questions About
Year-End Tax Preparation

1. When should year-end preparation start?

Immediately after your financial year ends. The sooner you close your books and begin adjustments, the more time you have to identify and resolve any issues before the filing deadline.

2. Can Jazaa handle the full year-end close or just the tax part?

Both. If your accounting team handles the close, we take over for the tax calculations and return preparation. If you need help with the close itself, we manage that too.

3. What if my books are not ready at year-end?

This is common. We work with your team to bring the books up to date and complete the close as quickly as possible, then move directly into tax preparation.

4. Do I need audited financials for my CT return?

The FTA may require audited financials depending on your entity type and revenue level. Jazaa advises whether an audit is needed and coordinates with your auditor if so.

5. What happens if I miss my filing deadline?

Late filing penalties apply. If you realize you are at risk of missing the deadline, contact Jazaa immediately so we can assess your options.
