AI-Assisted Bookkeeping Service UAE — Monthly Bookkeeping with Human Professional Review
Quick answer: AI-assisted bookkeeping uses artificial intelligence to draft journal entries, classify transactions, and match invoices, while a licensed accounting team performs the final review. Abdelhamid & Co (MOE LC0106-01, FTA TAN 30003958) offers monthly packages from AED 200, scaled by transaction volume, with optional VAT support.
Abdelhamid & Co Certified Public Accountants & Auditors combines AI-powered transaction processing with the professional oversight required for UAE record-keeping compliance under Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022 (Corporate Tax) and Federal Decree-Law No. 8 of 2017 (VAT). Every AI-prepared entry is checked, reconciled, and finalized by our team before it becomes part of your official books.
What Is AI-Assisted Bookkeeping?
AI-assisted bookkeeping means your monthly accounting work is processed faster using artificial intelligence, while final review stays under human professional control. The AI reads transaction logs, drafts journal entries, classifies income and expenses, matches invoices and receipts to bank movements, and flags missing information or duplicated entries — preparing a clean file for accountant review.
This service suits businesses that do not want a full-time accountant but still need organized, VAT-ready, professionally reviewed books every month.

How the AI-Assisted Bookkeeping Service Works
1. You Send the Monthly Data
Send transactions using a simple Google Sheet, Excel file, bank statement, invoices, receipts, or ERP export. We only need date, amount, direction (in/out), reference number, party name, TRN if available, a short description, and the supporting document where available.
2. AI Prepares the Accounting Draft
Our AI-assisted workflow reads the transaction data and drafts accounting entries, helping classify sales, purchases, expenses, bank movements, VAT items, prepayments, accruals, owner drawings, and loan or finance transactions.
3. Documents Are Matched
Where documents exist, we match invoices, receipts, vouchers, and bank movements against the ledger to strengthen the audit trail and reduce unsupported balances.
4. Human Review Is Performed
Our professional team checks accounting classification, VAT treatment, bank reconciliation, missing documents, duplicate entries, unusual transactions, TRN and invoice details, and monthly closing accuracy before anything is finalized.
5. You Receive Monthly Accounting Records
Depending on the package, deliverables may include an updated ledger, bank reconciliation, sales/purchase/expense summaries, a VAT working file if selected, a monthly management report, and review notes on exceptions.
Our Monthly Pricing
Choose the package that matches your actual transaction volume:
| Package | Max. Monthly Transactions | Base Fee | With VAT Add-on |
|---|---|---|---|
| Micro | Up to 20 | AED 200/month | AED 250/month |
| Starter | Up to 50 | AED 250/month | AED 325/month |
| Bronze | Up to 100 | AED 300/month | AED 400/month |
| Silver | Up to 150 | AED 350/month | AED 475/month |

One transaction means one accounting movement to record, classify, or match — a sales invoice, purchase bill, receipt, payment, bank statement line, journal adjustment, or expense voucher. Example: 10 sales invoices + 5 supplier bills + 35 bank lines = 50 transactions/month, so the Starter package applies. Need more than 500 transactions monthly? We provide a custom bookkeeping and ERP support package.
Optional VAT Add-On
Suitable for VAT-registered businesses needing support with classification and return preparation: output and input VAT summaries, VAT classification review, supplier TRN review where available, missing tax-invoice observations, VAT return preparation support, and review of unusual VAT transactions. VAT return filing and Tax Agent representation can be agreed separately.
What Is Not Included?
- Backlog bookkeeping for previous months or years
- Full ERP implementation or payroll processing
- Inventory costing or complex revenue recognition
- Corporate Tax return filing, external audit, or financial statement audit
- FTA reconsideration or tax dispute support
- Custom API integrations or full accounting department automation
Businesses needing to automate their internal accounting department rather than outsource bookkeeping may prefer our Agentic Accounting Automation Service instead.
Common Mistakes Businesses Make Without Reviewed Bookkeeping
- Relying on AI output alone with no accountant sign-off, risking VAT misclassification
- Letting bank reconciliation lapse for months, hiding cash discrepancies
- Missing supplier TRNs or invoice numbers that later block input VAT recovery
- Posting owner drawings or loans as expenses, distorting profit
- Discovering unsupported balances only at Corporate Tax or audit time

Does AI-assisted bookkeeping cover backlog bookkeeping from previous years?
No, the standard monthly packages cover current-month processing only. Backlog bookkeeping for previous months or years is quoted separately based on volume and document availability.
