Professional Profile
Muhammad Qasim FCCA is one of Dubai’s most experienced tax and accounting advisors, with more than 16 years of professional practice since 2010, including over a decade navigating the UAE’s complex regulatory environment since 2014. He guided businesses through the introduction of VAT in January 2018, supported them through the Corporate Tax rollout in June 2023, and today advises SMEs, hospitality groups, and F&B operators on how to stay fully compliant with the Federal Tax Authority while using AI-powered tools to make compliance faster, cleaner, and more reliable than traditional manual processes.
He holds the FCCA designation from the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA), the highest tier of membership within one of the world’s most respected professional accounting bodies, recognised in more than 180 countries. As Founder and CEO of Qaspro Global, he leads a full-service accounting and business advisory practice serving clients across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and the wider UAE. He is also Co-Founder of Yalah Documents Clearing Services LLC, a licensed government-services and PRO company handling visa processing, company formation, and official document clearing. Across his career in the UAE, Muhammad Qasim has founded three companies, including Gulf Business Solutions LLC; today he leads Qaspro Global and Yalah Documents Clearing Services LLC.
His professional philosophy is built on a single principle: compliance should be proactive, never reactive. Rather than addressing tax issues only when they surface during an FTA review, he structures his clients’ accounting and tax affairs so that they remain audit-ready at all times.
A particular strength of his is applying artificial intelligence in accounting. He has developed an in house ERP (enterprise resource planning) system that automates bookkeeping, financial reporting, and tax compliance, and he helps clients bring the same AI driven efficiency and automation into their own finance operations.

Areas of Specialisation
While Muhammad Qasim advises clients across many sectors, his practice has developed a particular depth in the UAE hospitality and food and beverage industry, an area where VAT treatment is among the most complex of any sector.
Hospitality and F&B Tax Advisory
Hotels, restaurants, cafes, catering companies, cloud kitchens, and food distributors process high transaction volumes across multiple VAT categories, creating significant scope for classification error. Muhammad Qasim’s hospitality clients benefit from his expertise in:

- Correct VAT treatment of hotel accommodation, room service, service charges, and bundled hospitality packages

- Corporate tax planning for hospitality groups, including transfer pricing and intercompany transactions under Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022
- FTA audit representation and voluntary disclosure filings for hospitality businesses

Beyond hospitality, his experience extends to retail, real estate, construction, logistics, healthcare, technology, e-commerce, and professional services, supporting businesses from early-stage start-ups to established mid-sized enterprises.

A Proactive Approach to UAE Compliance
What distinguishes Muhammad Qasim’s practice is not knowledge of the rules alone, but an understanding of how the Federal Tax Authority applies them in practice. Having advised businesses through both the VAT and Corporate Tax transitions, he focuses on getting the foundations right, accurate registration, correct treatment of transactions, clean documentation, and timely filing, so that compliance becomes a routine part of operations rather than a source of risk.
This proactive method is especially valuable in the hospitality and F&B sector, where the volume and variety of daily transactions make small, repeated errors easy to overlook and costly to correct after the fact. The goal is always the same: a business that is confident, compliant, and prepared for any review well before one is ever announced.
AI and Technology in Modern Accounting
One of Muhammad Qasim’s core competencies is bringing modern technology and artificial intelligence into accounting and finance. Qaspro Global does not rely on slow, manual, paper heavy processes. The firm uses automation and AI driven tools to streamline bookkeeping, reconciliations, reporting, and tax compliance, giving clients faster, cleaner, and more accurate financial information.
Qaspro Global can also help implement AI accounting inside your own business, including:
- Automating repetitive bookkeeping and data entry so your team spends less time on manual work
- AI assisted bank reconciliation and transaction categorisation to reduce human error
- Streamlined, technology driven VAT and corporate tax workflows for faster and more reliable compliance
- Real time financial dashboards and smart reporting so you always know where your business stands
- Integrating your accounting software, POS, and banking into one connected, automated system
The goal is simple: use modern technology and AI to remove busywork, cut costs, and give business owners clear, real time visibility over their finances, while keeping full UAE tax compliance.
