Document background
The Client Entertainment Policy serves as a crucial governance document for organizations operating in the United Arab Emirates, where business hospitality plays a significant role in developing and maintaining professional relationships. This document becomes necessary when companies need to establish clear boundaries and procedures for client entertainment activities while ensuring compliance with UAE laws, including anti-bribery regulations, Sharia principles, and local business customs. The policy typically includes specific guidance on monetary limits, approval processes, acceptable venues, documentation requirements, and cultural considerations specific to the UAE market. It helps organizations manage risks associated with business hospitality while maintaining effective client relationships.
