Reporting on goAML Portal under UAE AML Regulations

Under Article 18 of Federal Decree-Law No. 10 of 2025, read with Articles 17 to 19 of Cabinet Resolution No. 134 of 2025, a regulated entity that suspects a transaction is linked to a crime must file a report with the UAE Financial Intelligence Unit through the goAML portal without delay, and must not tip off the customer. 

The UAE AML regulations impose various goAML reporting requirements on the regulated organizations – Financial Institutions, Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) and Designated Non-Financial Businesses and Professions (DNFBPs).

The reports to be furnished on the FIU’s portal depend on the nature of the transaction, suspicions around money laundering or terrorism financing, the regulated organisation’s business activities, the geographies involved, etc.
