Dext expands into UAE, Cyprus, and Malta through partnership with Scope Solutions


Collaboration brings powerful automation and expense management solutions to support business growth and compliance

London, UK - Tuesday 18th February 2025 – Dext, the leading provider of bookkeeping automation and part of the IRIS Software Group, is today announcing its expansion into the United Arab Emirates, Cyprus, and Malta, driven by a strategic partnership with Scope Solutions, a trusted cloud accounting and technology solutions provider. 


This collaboration follows the successful integration of Dext with Zoho Books,one of the most widely adopted solutions in the Middle East, with a strong global presence. Through both collaborations, Dext will bring unparalleled automation and financial management capabilities to businesses, accountants and bookkeepers across the regions. 


Scope Solutions, headquartered in Malta and a recognised Zoho Finance Partner, is the first Dext channel partner serving UAE, Cyprus, and Malta. The partnership reflects the increasing demand for advanced bookkeeping solutions, particularly in the UAE, where tax regulations are evolving rapidly. Business activity in the region has also surged, with the UAE experiencing a doubling of new businesses being incorporated over the past five years. Combined with a significant influx of self-employed and freelance professionals relocating from the UK, Dext has experienced a surge in inquiries from Emirati firms, whilst the platform saw a 367% surge in transactions from the UAE over the course of a year.


This partnership brings Dext’s unified bookkeeping automation platform to all three markets, complemented by Zoho Books' robust accounting and tax compliance capabilities. Additionally, users will benefit from Dext’s latest feature releases, including Supplier Statements Reconciliation, Approvals, and Mileage Tracking, further boosting efficiency and control over financial processes.


By leveraging Scope’s extensive regional expertise and Dext’s leading automation technology, accountants, bookkeepers, and business owners across UAE, Malta and Cyprus will gain powerful tools to enhance data accuracy, streamline workflows, and make smarter financial decisions while staying compliant with evolving tax regulations. 


“Partnering with Scope Solutions allows us to better meet the growing demand for digital bookkeeping and compliance solutions across the Middle East and Europe,” said Sabby Gill, CEO of Dext. “Following the integration with Zoho Books, this partnership enables us to deliver even greater value by pairing automation-driven tools with local expertise to empower firms to save time, drive growth, and deliver superior client service.”


Scope Solutions is delighted to partner with Dext to deliver powerful, automation-driven solutions to accountants and bookkeepers” says Ayman Kaouri, Co-founder and Regional Director of Scope Solutions. “Furthermore, as a Zoho Finance Partner, we are uniquely positioned to provide state-of-the-art solutions that combine Zoho Books’ comprehensive tax-compliance and accounting capabilities with Dext’s automation tools for businesses in the region. We are committed to partnering with our clients to build the technology stacks that will fuel their growth.
