Aged receivables report
A monthly accounts receivable ageing report for your UAE company breaks outstanding customer balances into current, 30, 60 and 90-plus day buckets, reconciled to invoices and payments in Xero, QuickBooks Online or Zoho Books, so collection risk is visible before it turns into a cash shortfall.

Seeing risk before it hits the bank
An ageing report is prepared each month as part of close, splitting every open customer balance into current, 30, 60 and 90-plus day buckets. Balances are reconciled to invoices and payments recorded in Xero, QuickBooks Online or Zoho Books, so the figures match what the ledger actually shows rather than a rough estimate pulled from memory.
Free zone and Qualifying Income visibility
For a Qualifying Free Zone Person, we also keep the ageing report split so receivables tied to Qualifying Income are visible separately from other trading activity. That split matters when your Corporate Tax position depends on keeping Qualifying Income clean of activity that would put the 0% rate at risk.
Write-offs stay your call
Bad-debt candidates are flagged for your review, with the history behind each one. Deciding whether to write off a balance, and how that interacts with VAT bad debt relief, sits with you and your tax agent, not with our bookkeeping team. The report itself is kept in the same format month over month, so a director or a lender reviewing three months side by side sees a genuine trend rather than three reports built on different assumptions.
Why lenders and financiers check this report
Many UAE companies fund working capital through invoice discounting, and the facility provider checks the ageing schedule against the sales ledger before releasing funds against it. A clean, consistently formatted ageing report is what keeps a drawdown moving rather than stalled on a query from the lender's monitoring team.
