UBO Registration in UAE

Under UAE law, all companies, whether mainland, free zone, or offshore, are required to maintain an accurate Ultimate Beneficial Owner (UBO) register and report it to the relevant authorities.

The UBO register identifies individuals who ultimately own or control a company, providing transparency to regulators, investors, and financial institutions. This requirement is part of the UAE’s commitment to combat money laundering, financial fraud, and tax evasion.

With Bestax, you can ensure your business stays fully compliant, transparent, and trusted by investors, banks, and authorities.
