Operating as a Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) provider or a Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) in the UAE requires strict regulatory adherence. At TAG, we offer end-to-end support to navigate the licensing process, ensuring your crypto or blockchain venture is fully compliant with the legal frameworks established by key regulatory authorities such as VARA, the Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA), and the Central Bank of the UAE.
Our team of experts simplifies the process, helping you secure the right license for your business activity — whether you're launching a crypto exchange, wallet service, custodial platform, tokenization solution, or DeFi protocol.
What Is a VASP or DLT Provider?
Under UAE regulations, entities involved in virtual asset activities — such as facilitating exchange, custody, issuance, or advisory — are categorized as VASPs and must obtain proper licensing. Similarly, DLT providers offering infrastructure or blockchain-based services are also regulated entities.
Getting licensed is not just a legal requirement — it’s a trust signal to clients, partners, and investors, showing your commitment to transparency, accountability, and best practices.
