UAE Trade License OCR Extraction API
Introduction
The UAE Trade License Extraction API is designed to automatically extract key information from UAE Trade License documents submitted by users. Using OCR and document intelligence techniques, the API identifies and captures relevant fields from the trade license, converting unstructured document data into a structured JSON response.
This API helps organizations digitize business onboarding, reduce manual data entry, improve operational efficiency, and enable faster KYB, UBO verification, and underwriting workflows.
