  Cryptocurrency exchanges in the UAE are regulated by the Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA). The SCA requires exchanges to obtain a license to operate legally in the country. The license application process involves meeting certain criteria, including having a robust anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) framework in place. Additionally, exchanges must adhere to strict cybersecurity measures to protect user funds and data. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in penalties or even the revocation of the license.
