CBUAE imposes financial sanction of Dhs10.7 million on exchange house
The Central Bank of the UAE (CBUAE) imposed a financial sanction of Dhs10,700,000 on an exchange house, pursuant to Article (14) of the Federal Decree Law No. (20) of 2018 on Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism and Illegal Organisations, and its amendments. The financial sanction has been imposed after assessing the findings of an examination conducted by the CBUAE, which revealed that the exchange house failed to comply with the AML/CFT policies and procedures and Sanctions obligation. The CBUAE, through its supervisory and regulatory mandates, endeavours to ensure that all exchange houses, their owners, and staff abide by the UAE laws, regulations and standards established by the CBUAE to maintain transparency and integrity of the exchange houses industry and safeguard the UAE financial ecosystem.

There's a new UAE traffic rule that could land you a Dhs100,000 fine or jail time
If you're ever involved in a road accident in the UAE – even a minor fender bender – the new traffic law makes one thing crystal clear: report it and report it fast. Under updated federal traffic rules that came into effect this year, drivers who flee the scene of an accident could now face up to one year in jail and a Dh100,000 fine. That's right – even if you didn't cause serious damage or injury, leaving without informing the authorities could land you in serious legal trouble. The new three-hour rule Got into a crash? You now have three hours to report it to the police or an officially approved platform. Whether it's a tap in the parking lot or something more serious, failing to do so – without a valid excuse – counts as a punishable offense. Valid excuses include things like physical injury or network outages, but you'll need proof, like a medical report or witness testimony. The new law also tightens restrictions on what happens next. You can't just take your car to the garage – any visible damage must be reported and you'll need an official repair permit before a single scratch gets buffed out. What counts as fleeing the scene? According to the government portal, here's what could get you in hot water: Leaving the site of an accident without informing authorities Not sharing information about the accident Ignoring a police order to stop Deliberately ramming into a police or emergency vehicle All of the above carry a maximum punishment of one year in prison or fines between Dh50,000 and Dh100,000 – or both. How to report an accident in the UAE If you're involved in an accident (minor or otherwise), there are plenty of ways to report it. Most emirates have smart apps that make it easy – no waiting in line at the station required. Here are some of the platforms you can use: Abu Dhabi Police app Dubai Police app Ministry of Interior app SAAED system Rafid (for Sharjah accidents) Or, if it's an emergency or you're unsure what to do, just call 999. What if your car has ECALL? If you drive a newer model vehicle, chances are it already comes with ECALL, an automatic crash-alert system. Introduced in 2020 and now standard in new cars, the system alerts emergency responders within seconds of a collision, sending your location and vehicle details straight to their dispatch team. It's already credited with reducing response times and saving lives – and it's one reason the authorities are doubling down on quicker, tech-powered accident reporting. Bottom line? Don't panic, don't run and don't wait. If you've been in an accident – even a minor one – report it within three hours and follow official procedures. It's not just about avoiding a fine or legal trouble; it could help emergency teams get to the scene faster and keep everyone safe.
