My wife and I are considering moving our consulting business to Dubai plus maybe living there some of the year, and we got a a recommendation for a tax accountant & visa specialist. Asked him for a quote for what I think is a pretty common set of requirements:
- Company incorporation, license, e.t.c
- Visas for myself & my wife, all associated fees
- Annual accounting, registration & reporting services
Several friends/colleagues have used this guys' company and are happy with the result, but his quote was almost triple the ones I got by most of the service providers I found via Google. Also the outfits that quoted me online were very close price-wise, +/- 10%. All are using same free zone, including this guy recommended to us.
What am I missing, am I just being ripped off or are these online service providers a scam? It's not the sort of thing I like to save money on per-se, but given the massive price difference, I have to ask...
