RAK Region Advances Decentralized Autonomy with DAO Association Regime

The Ras Al-Khaimah (RAK region) in the United Arab Emirates has set a new benchmark in the global decentralized ecosystem by introducing the DAO Association Regime (DARe). It provides a legal framework that empowers Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) to thrive within its digital assets oasis-free zone.

The RAK region offers the legal infrastructure necessary to interact with off-chain entities and operate securely and legally. The newly launched DARe enables DAOs to open bank accounts, own on-chain and off-chain assets, and interact seamlessly with traditional entities within the RAK Digital Assets Oasis free zone.

The introduction of DARe comes at a pivotal time when DAOs are gaining momentum worldwide. With their ability to operate autonomously without central authority, DAOs present unprecedented opportunities for collaboration, innovation, and financial freedom. However, the lack of a comprehensive regulatory framework has been a significant barrier to their widespread adoption.

RAK DAO, CBUAE Bolster Regulation and Support for Web3 Innovation

RAK DAO is dedicated to meeting the needs of Web3 entrepreneurs and innovators, positioning itself as a center for decentralized innovation and supporting emerging technologies like blockchain.

They acknowledged DAOs as vital infrastructure for the Web3 economy. By offering a structured legal framework specifically designed for the Web3 industry, RAK DAO aims not only to facilitate compliance and legal clarity but also to boost the credibility of participating projects. They further mentioned that the DARe solution is customized to address the unique requirements of Web3 projects.

The organization took to X to express its excitement.

In a related move, the Central Bank of the UAE (CBUAE) initiated the regulation of the virtual asset market, with particular attention to Algorithmic Stablecoins and Privacy Tokens. These two categories of digital assets have drawn regulatory scrutiny due to their potential for misuse and the risks they pose to the integrity of the financial system. The move is regarded as a bold shift for CBUAE, which has traditionally taken a cautious stance on financial innovation.

Additionally, the UAE Federal Tax Authority (FTA) also announced important updates to the Executive Regulation of Federal Decree-Law No. 8 of 2017 concerning Value Added Tax (VAT). Set to take effect on November 15, 2024, these changes, outlined in Cabinet Decision No. 100 of 2024, aim to improve clarity, offer detailed guidance, and ensure VAT processes are in line with broader tax regulations.
