ACCA in the UAE

Hi there, 

From what I understand, ACCA generally requires practical work experience as part of its certification process. However, the specifics can sometimes vary depending on the institution or regional policies. Mirchawala’s Hub of Accountancy might have certain arrangements or pathways that could impact this requirement. I’d recommend checking directly with them or looking at ACCA’s official guidelines to be absolutely sure.

Yes, ACCA requires candidates to complete 36 months of relevant practical experience, known as the Practical Experience Requirement (PER), regardless of where they are studying—including in the UAE. This means that even if you’re pursuing ACCA through Mirchawala’s Hub of Accountancy, you’ll still need to gain relevant work experience to become fully certified.

The good news is that you can complete this experience before, during, or after your exams, and the UAE job market offers strong opportunities for ACCA candidates. Mirchawala’s provides guidance on the process, but it's up to you to secure a relevant role in accounting or finance.
