DBM Services
goAML Registration & AML Compliance in the UAE
Mandatory for DNFBPs — heavy fines for those who skip it
If your business is a Designated Non-Financial Business or Profession (DNFBP) — real estate brokers, dealers in precious metals and stones, auditors and accountants, or corporate service providers — UAE law requires you to register on the goAML platform, the Financial Intelligence Unit's reporting system. Operating without it exposes you to fines that can reach AED 1 million and license suspension.
DBM handles the full compliance setup: goAML portal registration (including the SACM pre-registration step most firms get stuck on), appointing and notifying your AML compliance officer, drafting your AML/CFT policies and customer due-diligence procedures, and training your team on when and how to file suspicious transaction reports.
