What is an Excise Tax Audit?
An Excise Tax Audit is a formal examination conducted by the FTA to review your business’s compliance with excise tax laws. It includes reviewing your tax filings, inventory records, warehouse operations, and supporting documentation related to excise goods.
Audits are often unannounced and require businesses to present records dating back several years — which can be overwhelming without expert support.
At Vensor Business Setup, we provide dedicated Excise Tax Audit Assistance to help you prepare for, manage, and respond to audits professionally — while ensuring that your business remains fully compliant.
Our team of seasoned tax experts supports you at every step of the audit process — from initial document preparation to post-audit response and rectification.

We analyze your past excise tax filings, inventory logs, warehouse registrations, and documentation to identify and fix any red flags before the audit begins.
