Frequently Asked Questions

Questions & Answers

Q: In which forms can Garuda Mudra help me understand the business in UAE or India?

For those who have or are managing a free-zone and mainland company in UAE (DIFC/ADGM and other zones) or have subsidiaries, branch offices, or liaison office in India, then we can be your partner. Our experts assist with name reservation, MoA/AoA drafting licensing, tax registrations and even with getting you bank account support.

In most cases, no. We are able to facilitate and remotely arrange digital filings, notarisation and approvals. Yet, there are some banks or the government that may counter this and insist on personal verification or presence of an authorised signatory.

If the value of its taxable supplies in 12 months exceeds AED 375,000, a business needs to register for VAT. Optional registration is available from AED 187,500. We manage the eligibility verification, documentation and subsequent issue of TRN on EmaraTax.

Our team of cross-border Chartered Accountants bridges the gap between your UAE Corporate Tax, VAT, ESR/UBO filings and Indian-side requirements – FDI/FEMA reporting, withholding tax optimization and DTAA planning so you never miss a deadline in either jurisdiction.

No. All prices are quoted inclusive of government costs and VAT. We issue a detailed proposal after determining the size of your entity, number of transactions and audit requirements.

Yes. We provide CFO-on-call, ESOP design, investor data room prep support and quarterly board packs and other strategic assistance so that founders can stay focused on operations while remaining investor ready.
