Human trafficking in the United Arab Emirates

The United Arab Emirates ratified the 2000 UN TIP Protocol in January 2009, and since then, it has steadily implemented a comprehensive set of legislation aimed at combating trafficking, including expanding enforcement.

In 2017 the United Arab Emirates was a destination country for men and women who are mostly trafficked for labor and prostitution. The U.S. State Department's Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons placed the country in "Tier 2" in 2017 and 2023.
