The UAE has introduced a new law, namely the Dubai Law No. 5 of 2024, which has abrogated Dubai Law No. 4/1994 on the Local Penal Code of 1970 to address the evolving legal and regulatory needs. The Penal Code reflects UAE’s commitment to upholding law and order and ensuring justice in the country. The changes in the Penal Code encompass a wide range of sectors and aim to streamline and enhance the legal framework in the UAE. With the implementation of the Penal Code, affirming that the UAE Federal Penal Code is the sole applicable criminal law, it is essential to stay informed and compliant with the updated regulations to ensure alignment with the legal requirements in the UAE.
