CashLaw Global assists UAE businesses in completing their goAML registration accurately and efficiently. The registration process requires specific information about the business, its AML compliance officer, its supervisory authority and the nature of its activities. We manage the registration process from start to completion, ensuring that the business is correctly registered and operationally ready to file STRs and SARs through the platform from the point of registration.
