UAE & Gulf region
The UAE has developed frameworks including DFSA (DIFC) and VARA (Dubai virtual assets). Retail traders in UAE/Gulf should:
- Confirm broker regulation (DFSA, FSA, or recognised authority).
- Understand Sharia-compliant account options if required for personal faith alignment.
- Gold and USD pairs remain popular — same technical education applies (Modules 3–9).
Cross-border tax residency rules vary — consult a qualified adviser for your situation.
