Who We Are

AcTax was founded on a simple observation: most businesses in the UAE can find someone to keep their books or file their VAT return, but very few can find a partner who also thinks like a CFO. AcTax gives growing businesses direct access to finance leadership shaped by more than 21 years across the Middle East, North Africa, Türkiye and European-headquartered multinational environments. 

Our experience includes managing multi-currency finance operations across five legal entities in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Egypt and Türkiye; supporting regional growth from approximately €5 million to €70 million; reducing DSO by 50%; and contributing to more than €10 million in annual cash-flow improvement. We have also led clean statutory and group audits, SAP and VAT implementation, KSA ZATCA e-invoicing, UAE Corporate Tax readiness and filing, post-acquisition integration, entity restructuring, and board-level reporting within global technology and software businesses.
