How we match you to the right desk

We don't pretend Dubai is a single market. Below is exactly how your nationality + target emirate route to the specialist team you'll speak to.

KYC depth by passport (FATF-aware)

UAE-Invest uses CBUAE + FATF tiers to set onboarding depth. Tier-A is fast-track; tier-D requires enhanced due diligence; sanctioned jurisdictions cannot be onboarded.

DE	tier-A-streamlined	fast-track	DE — streamlined
NL	tier-A-streamlined	fast-track	NL — streamlined
FR	tier-A-streamlined	fast-track	FR — streamlined
AE	tier-A-streamlined	fast-track	AE — streamlined
IN	tier-B-standard	standard	IN — standard
PK	tier-B-standard	standard	PK — standard
RU	tier-B-standard	standard	RU — standard
