Why independence matters here

FAQ
Key answers before you start
What's the difference between internal and external audit?
Internal audit is an in-house assessment we perform to improve controls; external audit is an independent, certified opinion from a licensed chartered accountant for statutory purposes.
Is the report officially certified?
Yes, it's issued by accountants licensed by the Saudi Organization for Chartered and Professional Accountants (SOCPA).
Does every company need an annual external audit?
It varies by entity type and its regulatory requirements — we can tell you whether your business needs one.
How long does the audit take?
It depends on the size and complexity of your business — we'll give you a realistic estimate after the initial review.
Can you prepare our statements and audit them at the same time?
No, independence is a core requirement of external audit — if we prepared the statements ourselves, we can't independently audit them at the same time.
