Ape Law VASP Verify

Getting started with VASP Verify

The quickest way to check a website against reviewed UAE VASP licence records and confirm the official source.

Documentation reviewed Tracker data collected Website relationships reviewed

The five-step check

  1. 1
    Install VASP Verify

    Use the confirmed Chrome Web Store or Firefox Add-ons link on the installation page. Do not install copies from an unrecognised source.

  2. 2
    Open the business website

    Go to the specific website used by the virtual-asset business. A group, brand and legal entity can use different domains.

  3. 3
    Open VASP Verify

    Select the extension from the browser toolbar or extensions menu. It extracts the active tab's hostname on your device.

  4. 4
    Read the record found

    Review the matched legal entity, regulator, reference, status evidence and source activity or permission wording. Open the tracker record for separately labelled Ape Law comparison categories.

  5. 5
    Confirm the official record

    Open the regulator source and check that it is current and relevant to the product or service you are assessing.

Before relying on a result

A domain relationship is not the same thing as a legal entity, and a legal entity's authorisation may cover only specified activities. Confirm the entity name, jurisdiction, reference, permission wording, restrictions and status directly with the regulator.

Prefer the tracker?

The public tracker provides the same authorisation publication as a searchable table and remains available without installing an extension.
