DMCC Approved Auditors in Dubai: Complete Guide for 2025

The Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) is one of the UAE’s most prestigious free zones, strategically located in the heart of Jumeirah Lake Towers (JLT). Recognized globally as a center for trade and innovation, DMCC has earned the title “Global Free Zone of the Year” nine times by the Financial Times Group.

To operate successfully within DMCC, businesses must meet strict compliance standards—most importantly, appointing a DMCC Approved Auditor and submitting audited financial statements annually. This article explains who qualifies as a DMCC-approved auditor, what’s required, and how your business can stay fully compliant.

What Is a DMCC Approved Auditor?

A DMCC Approved Auditor is a licensed audit firm that appears on the DMCC Approved Auditors List (AAL), maintained under the Approved Auditors Rules (AAR) introduced in January 2017. These auditors are authorized to conduct audits for companies registered in DMCC.

According to DMCC’s official guidelines:

• Audit firms must be registered with the UAE Ministry of Economy

• Must comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)

• Must appear on the official DMCC Approved Auditors List 2025

Why Is an Audit Mandatory in DMCC?

DMCC requires all companies to conduct statutory audits to ensure transparency, financial health, and legal compliance. This requirement is enforced under Section 11 of the DMCC Company Regulations.

Purpose of the audit:

• Fulfill regulatory compliance

• Maintain business credibility

• Support license renewal

• Provide clear financial reporting

• Mitigate internal fraud or errors
