Arbeat Secures Full VARA License to Expand Crypto Services in Dubai

Dubai Strengthens Position as Islamic Fintech Hub with New License

Arbeat Group FZE has achieved a significant milestone by obtaining a Full Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) Licence from Dubai's Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA). This authorization enables the company to legally offer Exchange Services and Broker-Dealer Services in the emirate, marking another step forward in Dubai's ambition to become a global hub for regulated digital asset activity.

Comprehensive Approval for Diverse Investor Segments

The newly granted license, documented as VL/26/07/001 in VARA's public register, permits Arbeat to serve institutional, qualified, and retail investors. This follows the company's earlier In-Principle Approval received in January 2026, which covered the same service categories. The full license demonstrates Arbeat's successful compliance with VARA's comprehensive regulatory framework for virtual assets.

Regulatory Milestone for Islamic Fintech Sector

This development comes as Dubai continues to establish itself as a leader in Islamic fintech innovation. VARA's rigorous licensing process ensures that approved firms meet strict Sharia-compliance standards alongside conventional financial regulations. Industry analysts note that such approvals help bridge traditional Islamic finance with emerging digital asset ecosystems, creating new opportunities for ethically-conscious investors.
