A country’s economy relies on sound public spending to function effectively. In the UAE, the In-Country Value (ICV) Program plays a key role in strengthening the local market. By embedding local content across all economic sectors, the program ensures that a greater share of spending remains within the national economy.
The ICV Program reshapes government operations to achieve broader economic objectives, such as boosting local production, creating jobs, and attracting investment. These goals are guided by clear strategies, comprehensive plans, and a forward-looking economic vision enshrined in national laws and policies.
Obtaining ICV certification offers significant advantages for companies, particularly by enabling their participation in government tenders. More importantly, it enhances their financial contribution to the local economy. This positive impact is driven by three key factors:
To advance these objectives, all federal and local government entities, as well as semi-government organizations, have joined forces to drive the ICV program forward.
One of the primary aims of ICV certification is to significantly strengthen local supply chains, while also diversifying and reinforcing the UAE’s national economy.
An ICV-certified entity is well-positioned to increase Emiratization within the private sector and facilitate the transfer of advanced technology and data to local businesses.
ICV certification evaluates the value-added contribution of an entity to the UAE economy across the following areas:
To obtain an ICV certificate, companies must meet the following key requirements:
Submit financial statements compiled and audited in accordance with IFRS for the last two years.
The submitted financial audits must not be older than two years from the date of certification.
For companies established less than ten months ago, management accounts may be used for ICV certification. However, if the company is more than nine months old, audited management accounts are required.
For ICV certification purposes, each firm’s trade license is treated as a separate legal entity. This applies even when ownership structures are identical across multiple licenses.
A single ICV certificate may be granted to a company with several branches located in the same emirate, provided they perform similar activities and share the same ownership structure.
We assist you in obtaining an ICV certificate efficiently and accurately.
We understand the importance of deadlines and reporting requirements. Our formal engagement plan ensures that all your specific queries are answered within 24 hours.
Our audit firm conducts a thorough audit of your financial statements and helps you understand ICV and its key determining factors.
We provide actionable suggestions to improve your ICV score and draft your ICV template based on the financial records of the year under certification.
We formulate an ICV improvement plan that can be prepared on short notice when required to be submitted with ADNOC tenders.
The ICV certificate is valid for 14 months from the date of the audited financial statement. This validity period is based on the use of the same audited financial statements and remains consistent in all cases. During the certificate’s validity, the supplier may also obtain recertification from the same certifying entity.

When operating in the UAE, it is mandatory to verify the identities and business activities of your customers before any transaction takes place.
If something feels suspicious, report it. Once shared with the UAE’s Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU), these activities are thoroughly investigated.
Good records are not optional. Businesses are required to maintain every log, customer document, and record for the duration of the activity period, as often required by regulators.
AML regulations are not one-size-fits-all. The UAE requires businesses to regularly assess, promptly identify, and report risks related to Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (CFT).
