AML & Compliance Services
Clear guidance, practical implementation, and full confidentiality at every stage.
Professional AML and
Regulatory Compliance Support in the UAE
Businesses operating in the UAE are required to meet strict Anti-Money Laundering and Counter Terrorism Financing obligations. Regulators expect clear frameworks, documented controls, trained personnel, and ongoing oversight.
We provide professional AML and compliance services that help businesses meet UAE regulatory requirements with confidence. Our role is to take responsibility for compliance so you can focus on running your business without regulatory risk.
Why Businesses Seek Professional Compliance Support
Most businesses look for external compliance support when they need clarity, certainty, reliability and accountability.
Clients typically contact us when they:
Want to understand exactly what UAE AML regulations require from them
Need professionally drafted and regulator-ready compliance documentation
Require support for goAML registration and regulatory reporting
Are preparing for inspections, audits, or bank reviews
Want ongoing compliance without building an internal compliance department
We act as a trusted compliance partner, aligned with UAE regulatory expectations and enforcement standards.
A Practical Approach to UAE AML Compliance
UAE regulators expect businesses to apply a risk-based approach to AML compliance. This means understanding your risks, implementing appropriate controls, and maintaining clear records to demonstrate ongoing compliance.
Our approach focuses on practical implementation rather than theoretical compliance. We translate legal requirements into workable systems that align with how your business actually operates. Every framework is tailored to your risk profile and designed to meet regulatory expectations in real inspection scenarios.

Most Brokerages Come to Us
at One of These Moments
There is rarely a neutral moment in AML compliance. You are either ahead of the inspection or behind it. Brokerage owners typically reach out when one of the following is already in motion.
You have received a Ministry of Economy inspection notice and are not certain your documentation will hold up. Policies, KYC files, goAML registration, and training records all need to be in order when the inspector arrives.
You are handling cash or virtual asset transactions above AED 55,000 and have not been submitting Real Estate Activity Reports through goAML as required. Each unfiled report is a separate exposure point.
You have a compliance framework on paper but no one in your firm can clearly explain how to apply it to a real client, a real transaction, or an actual red flag situation when it arises.
Your bank has raised questions about your AML controls, or a transaction counterpart has asked for evidence of your compliance programme before proceeding. Both signal the same underlying gap.
You want to build this properly from the start. One correct framework, fully documented, maintained by someone who understands what regulators look for and how they assess it in the field.
End-to-End AML &
Compliance Services
Every service we deliver is tailored to your brokerage's specific operations, transaction profile, and risk exposure. We do not supply generic templates. We build frameworks that stand up when a regulator walks through your door, because we design them with exactly that scenario in mind.
AML & CFT Policy Development
Policies drafted to UAE law and executive regulations, practical, risk-based, and defensible during any Ministry inspection. Written for your brokerage, not copied from a template.
Business & Risk Assessments
Documented identification and assessment of your inherent and residual risks across customer type, geography, transaction method, and operational structure. Your specific risk profile, on paper.
Customer Due Diligence & Ongoing Monitoring
CDD and EDD procedures designed for how real estate transactions actually work, including third-party payments, cash deals, PEPs, non-resident buyers, and corporate structures.
goAML Registration & Regulatory Reporting
Full setup on the FIU goAML platform, correct REAR filing for qualifying transactions, STR identification and submission. Registered, verified, and reporting correctly from day one.
Compliance Officer Advisory & Support
Ongoing advisory for your appointed compliance officer, or an outsourced compliance function where your firm does not have one. We carry the operational weight so your team can focus on selling.
AML Audits & Gap Analysis
Independent review of your existing framework against current regulatory expectations. We identify weaknesses before inspectors do and deliver a clear remediation plan with defined timelines.
Regulatory Inspection & Audit Preparation
We review and organise all required documentation, run an inspection readiness assessment, and stay available during the regulatory visit. When the inspector arrives, you are prepared.
AML Training & Compliance Awareness
Role-based training for your agents, management, and compliance officer, practical, scenario-based, and recorded. Training records are prepared in the format regulators expect to see.
Ongoing Compliance Monitoring & Advisory
Continuous oversight, regulatory update briefings, and ongoing improvement of your controls as your business grows and as the regulatory environment evolves. Compliance that does not stand still.
Built for Real Estate Brokerages.
Not Generic Compliance.
Most compliance advisors in the UAE serve financial institutions. Tasdeeq was built specifically for the DNFBP sector, with deep knowledge of how the Ministry of Economy inspects real estate firms, what documents they request, and what gaps they consistently find.
Sector-Specific Knowledge
We know how real estate transactions are structured in the UAE, including cash payments, manager's cheques, third-party buyers, shell companies, and international wire transfers. Our frameworks are built around your actual transaction types, not textbook examples.
Inspection-Ready Documentation
Every document we produce, including policies, risk assessments, CDD files, and training records, is organised and formatted for regulatory review. When the Ministry requests documentation, you respond on the same day, not the same week.
Full Confidentiality
Your compliance position, client files, and internal controls are not discussed beyond your engagement. Every conversation with Tasdeeq is confidential. Your business information stays with us.
Practical, Not Theoretical
We translate regulatory requirements into workable systems. Your staff will know exactly what to do when a high-risk client walks in, when a cash payment arrives, and when an inspector calls. No ambiguity left on the table.
What the Ministry Looks For
When They Visit Your Firm
The Ministry of Economy's periodic inspection checklist for real estate brokerages is detailed and non-negotiable. These are the items that determine whether your firm passes or faces sanctions.
AML/CFT Policy Manual — current, signed by senior management, and reflective of your actual business operations
Business Risk Assessment — documented and updated to reflect the 2024 National Risk Assessment typologies
KYC files for all clients — including EDD documentation for high-risk relationships and Politically Exposed Persons
goAML registration and REAR submissions — verified, active, and correctly filed for all qualifying cash and virtual asset transactions
Designated Compliance Officer — named, documented, with verifiable training attendance records on file
Staff training records — documented AML awareness training with attendance logs, available for review on the day of inspection
Internal audit or gap analysis report — demonstrating that your programme is actively reviewed and not a static document
Transaction monitoring mechanism — documented as a formal process with clear records, not an informal habit
From First Call to
Inspection-Ready
Confidential Discussion
We start with a direct conversation about your current compliance position, what you have, what you are missing, and where your exposure sits. No obligation. Fully confidential.
Gap Assessment
We review your existing documentation and processes against the Ministry's inspection checklist and current regulatory requirements. You receive a clear picture of what needs to be built or fixed.
Framework Delivery
We build or remediate your AML framework, including policies, risk assessments, CDD procedures, goAML registration, and training, tailored to your brokerage and structured for regulatory review.
Ongoing Support
Compliance is not a one-time project. We remain available for regulatory updates, staff queries, inspection support, and continuous improvement as your business and the regulatory environment evolve.

After Working With Us
The inspection notice arrived on a Tuesday. By Friday we had a full readiness assessment and a clear action plan. Nothing was left to chance.
We had policies in place but no one on the team actually understood how to apply them. The training sessions changed that completely.
Our goAML registration had been sitting incomplete for months. Tasdeeq resolved it within days and filed our outstanding REARs correctly.
Straightforward, discreet, and genuinely knows the Ministry's expectations. Exactly what a compliance partner should be.
We engaged Tasdeeq ahead of our first Ministry inspection. We passed with no findings. That result speaks for itself.
The gap analysis was eye-opening. We thought we were compliant. We were not. The remediation plan was practical and we worked through it methodically.
Every document produced was clean, organised, and formatted exactly as the regulator expects. When the inspection came, we were ready.
Our agents now understand what a red flag looks like in a real transaction. The training was scenario-based, not theoretical. That made the difference.
We have worked with several compliance consultants. None have matched this level of precision and follow-through.
The cash transaction procedures we had were not going to hold up under scrutiny. Tasdeeq rebuilt them completely. Inspection passed without a single query.
Confidential, professional, and always available when we needed guidance. Our compliance officer now has a reliable expert to call on.
We operate across multiple jurisdictions and had complex UBO structures that needed careful handling in our KYC documentation. Handled correctly and completely.
From our first conversation it was clear this was not a generic service. Every recommendation was specific to how we actually transact.
The ongoing monitoring arrangement means we do not have to think about compliance updates on our own. We are briefed promptly when something changes.
Tasdeeq prepared our compliance officer for the inspection interview as well as the documentation. That preparation was invaluable.
Our bank had raised concerns about our AML framework. Tasdeeq addressed every point and we provided the bank with a clear, structured response.
We are a newer developer and needed to build our compliance programme from the ground up. The framework delivered was solid, defensible, and practical.
The STR process was something our team found difficult to navigate. We now have a clear internal procedure and the filings are handled correctly.
Every interaction has been handled with discretion. In a sector where confidentiality matters, that is not a small thing.
We came in with an inspection in three weeks. Tasdeeq prioritised us, worked through the documentation systematically, and we came out clean.

Do Not Wait for an
Inspection Notice
to Find Out Where You Stand
A confidential conversation costs nothing. Within one call, you will know your exposure, what documentation you are missing, and what needs to be in place before the Ministry visits. Most brokerages are closer to compliant than they think, but the gaps that remain are the ones that create liability.
