A Credit Reference Letter is a crucial financial document in the UAE banking system, issued by banks to their customers for various purposes such as securing loans, establishing business relationships, or fulfilling regulatory requirements. The document is governed by UAE Federal Laws and Central Bank regulations, particularly those concerning banking operations and credit information. It typically includes details about the customer's banking relationship, account conduct, credit facilities, and overall financial standing.
