About the estimator.
Fixed prices cover the stated standard service. Starting prices and specialist work require a scope review and written quote before payment.
See the plan comparison for included work and subscriber rates. Benefits apply to the same entity and agreed period. Annual-statement discounts require completed MERAKI-maintained books. CT returns use the published annual-revenue tiers.
We reconcile your plan, packages and prior paid work so the same deliverable is not charged twice.
The introductory discussion is complimentary. A detailed document or technical review is separately agreed; the optional AED 200 document-readiness review is credited once against MERAKI fees for the same entity and matter, with no expiry.
Where a specialist provider is needed, their identity, role, scope and fees are confirmed before appointment and separate consent to share documents. An enquiry does not appoint a professional.
Government, provider and other external charges are identified separately. Prices exclude VAT where applicable. Timing and responsibilities are agreed in your proposal.
