Data Location

Comments

The Ministry of Economy of the UAE has an online system for querying the unified central register of businesses in the UAE. ( https://cbls.economy.gov.ae/ ) The feature for searching for the business name displays the name of the business, its unique identify, and the date of its registration and expiration. The address is not available from this form. There is another search option for looking up business activities ( https://cbls.economy.gov.ae/BASearch.aspx ) but it is difficult to use this system to verify if it shows the address of the business or not.

Reviewer comments

I have marked the existence of the data as "unsure" based on the fact that it only meets some of the criteria.
