The Regulations will be applicable for financial years starting on 1 January 2019 and require all UAE businesses (including those in the DIFC and the ADGM financial free zones) to assess and make a declaration to their regulator around whether they conduct a ‘Relevant Activity’ - for a full list see here.

The different deadlines are:

  • DIFC - 12 June
  • ADGM - 30 June

If your UAE entity conducts activities which may fall into one of those categories, you need to take action now.
