Amber Premium Wins VARA In-principle Approval in Dubai - Crypto Economy

Abstract generation in progress

VARA’s public register shows that Amber Premium FZE has received an In-Principle Approval, or IPA, in Dubai. The regulator lists the approval as issued on December 17, 2025, covering broker-dealer services, management and investment services, and lending and borrowing services.

The distinction matters because this is not yet a full VASP licence. VARA states that an IPA is granted to licence applicants so they can complete the remaining requirements needed to obtain a VASP licence. The register also says Amber Premium is permitted to serve Institutional Investors and Qualified Investors.

What stands out here is that Amber has already cleared an important regulatory checkpoint in Dubai, but the process is still unfinished. For firms expanding into the UAE, an IPA signals that market entry is moving forward, while also making clear that final operating approval still depends on closing out the last compliance steps.
