KYC in the UAE
UAE legislation provides solid and dependable protection and confidentiality of tax data, banking operations, and information about assets and their owners.

In today's banking landscape, relying on "banking secrecy" is no longer a viable option. The disclosure of private information from bank accounts, whether it belongs to an individual or a company, can be prevented by utilizing the procedures outlined in the UAE's Common Reporting Standard (CRS) law. From setting up businesses to serviced office for rent in Dubai, SORP Group offers our clients robust solutions, empowering them to effortlessly conduct business and make payments with confidence. Trust us to provide you with unparalleled security and convenience.
