Law firms and Trust and Company Service Providers must run ongoing AML/CFT training so that their staff understand the risks the business faces and how to meet its obligations. Training is a required element of the firm’s internal controls and is overseen by the compliance officer. Effective programmes explain the relevant UAE laws and the firm’s own policies, teach employees how to carry out customer due diligence and identify beneficial owners, help staff recognise red flags and typologies relevant to legal and corporate services, and set out how and when to escalate and report a suspicious transaction internally, along with the prohibition on tipping off. Training should be tailored to each role, delivered when staff join and refreshed periodically, and documented so the firm can show its supervisor that awareness is maintained. The firm should also screen employees for fitness and propriety on appointment. **Legal Reference (UAE):** · [Cabinet Resolution No. 134 of 2025 (Executive Regulations)](https://rulebook.centralbank.ae/en/rulebook/cabinet-resolution-no-134-2025-regarding-executive-regulations-federal-decree-law-no-10), Article 22 (4) — requires training programmes and employee screening as part of the compliance function. · [Cabinet Resolution No. 134 of 2025 (Executive Regulations)](https://rulebook.centralbank.ae/en/rulebook/cabinet-resolution-no-134-2025-regarding-executive-regulations-federal-decree-law-no-10), Article 21 — internal controls that the training supports. _For more details, consult the full text of Cabinet Resolution No. 134 of 2025 or seek guidance from your AML compliance officer._ [AML regulations for DNFBPs in the UAE](https://amluae.com/aml-regulations-for-dnfbps-in-uae/)
