Every entity operating in Saudi Arabia is expected to maintain proper books of account that can support VAT returns, zakat or corporate income tax filings and the annual statutory audit. When records fall behind, every downstream obligation becomes harder and more expensive to meet. Reliable bookkeeping is therefore not back-office housekeeping; it is the foundation of your entire compliance position in the Kingdom.
What this covers
- Transaction recording: capturing sales, purchases, payroll journals and expenses in your accounting system with consistent coding and complete supporting documents behind every entry.
- General ledger maintenance: keeping the ledger, subledgers and control accounts in agreement so your trial balance is dependable at any point in the month, not only at year end.
- Bank and account reconciliations: reconciling bank accounts, petty cash and intercompany balances on a fixed schedule, with differences investigated rather than carried forward.
- VAT-ready records: coding input and output VAT in line with ZATCA requirements so return preparation draws directly from the ledger instead of side spreadsheets.
- Fixed asset register: maintaining asset records, additions, disposals and depreciation schedules that tie back to the general ledger.
- Month-end schedules: preparing the accruals, prepayments and supporting schedules that auditors, zakat and tax advisors will later ask for.
