What beneficial owner filing does a DMCC company keep up?

Last updated: Oct 21, 2026, 17:46 (UTC+08:00)

A register of beneficial owners holding 25% or more, or controlling the company in another way, filed with DMCC as registrar and updated when ownership changes. The register is not public. Tell us before any share transfer, because penalties apply when the filing falls out of date.
