About the event
Accounting & Business Expo Saudi Arabia has been postponed to November 2027. It was scheduled for 9 and 10 November 2026 at the Riyadh Front Exhibition and Conference Center, and the organiser will announce the new dates.
Accounting & Business Expo Saudi Arabia is a meeting point for the Kingdom's accounting, finance and business community. It pairs a conference programme with an exhibition floor and structured networking, and it focuses on e-invoicing, automation, compliance and data-driven decision-making as finance functions in Saudi Arabia go digital.
The conference is organised around themes including practice management, tax, bookkeeping, a CFO summit, outsourcing and offshoring, SME leaders and business, digital transformation, and HR and payroll. Published sessions cover ZATCA phase 2 compliance and Fatoora integration, ERP and e-invoicing ecosystems, treasury and liquidity management, SME corporate tax and Zakat, payroll compliance through WPS, Mudad and Qiwa, audit committees and internal audit, and the ethics of AI in accounting. It addresses CFOs, accountants, auditors, bookkeepers, tax specialists, SME owners and business leaders.
Attendance is free with the Event Pass, which covers the exhibition floor, the conference and keynote theatres and the event app. A Guest Pass is available by application, is restricted to C-level executives and is subject to the organiser's approval. A paid Premium Networking Pass carries a full price of US$3,000 with lower early-bird tiers and adds the full attendee list, unlimited one-to-one meeting bookings and access to the premium networking lounge. The conference is CPD certified, and attendees claim their CPD points by scanning the QR code displayed in the conference room.
