What is specific to United Arab Emirates

Three things cannot be deduced from any rail: how the beneficiary is designated locally, the reporting framework, and the real operating hours.

Details and name matching

A UAE IBAN starts with AE and has twenty-three characters. The local business calendar does not match the European one: an order placed at the end of the week can wait for the local reopening.

Reporting framework

The UAE do not generally tax individual income, but an activity carried out on a professional basis can fall under corporate tax. We give no tax advice: your account exports every operation for your accountant.

Hours and business days

Virement international SWIFT runs on business days, with a 13:00 cut-off. An order after that goes into the next run, so the next business day — and a Friday afternoon often means Monday.
