What Documents Are Required for Banking Management Services?
Valid UAE Trade License – Your trade license serves as the foundation for any financial transaction. It confirms that your business is legally registered and authorized to operate within the UAE.
Memorandum and Articles of Association (MOA) – This legal document outlines the structure of your business, including shareholding patterns, capital allocation, and decision-making authority. The MOA helps banks assess ownership transparency and evaluate who controls the financial and operational direction of the company.
Passport, Visa, and Emirates ID Copies – All shareholders, directors, and authorized signatories must submit copies of their passport, valid UAE visa, and Emirates ID (if they are residents). These documents are essential for identity verification, in compliance with UAE banking regulations and KYC (Know Your Customer) procedures.
Proof of Physical Address – Banks require verifiable proof of your business’s operational address within the UAE. Acceptable forms include a recent utility bill, tenancy contract, or Ejari certificate.
Board Resolution (Where Applicable) – In the case of multiple shareholders or partners, a board resolution is often necessary. This formal document should authorize the designated individual(s) to open and manage the company’s bank accounts and engage with banks on behalf of the business.
Bank Statements (6–12 Months for Existing Entities) – If your business is already operational, banks will generally request recent bank statements to assess financial activity, cash flow patterns, and business sustainability.
