QuickBooks to Zoho / Xero Migration

Switch accounting platforms without losing your numbers or your sanity. I move your data cleanly between QuickBooks, Zoho Books and Xero — chart of accounts, customers and suppliers, products and price lists, open invoices and bills, and historical transactions — and rebuild your UAE VAT settings so the 5% standard rate, zero-rated and exempt treatments carry over correctly. Every migration is reconciled against your trial balance and aged receivables/payables so the new system agrees with the old one to the dirham.

To de-risk the switch I run a parallel-run validation: the new platform is checked against the old one before you cut over, so you're never guessing whether the balances match. I also map FTA VAT codes and tax agencies, set opening balances, and give your team a short handover so they can raise invoices and run the VAT return on day one. Work covers SMEs and free-zone/mainland businesses across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah.

This gig is a migration between platforms. If you're starting fresh on QuickBooks Online and need it configured from scratch — chart of accounts, VAT, bank feeds and templates — that's my separate QuickBooks setup gig; this one is specifically about moving an existing business from one platform to another with the history intact.

How it works

1. 1
   Map + export

   Audit the source ledger, agree the COA/VAT mapping, export the data

2. 2
   Import + reconcile

   Load into the target platform and reconcile to trial balance and aged AR/AP

3. 3
   Validate + train

   Parallel-run check, sign-off and a handover session for your team
