A UAE lottery winner who secured the Dh100 million jackpot will receive the entire amount in a single transaction, according to officials familiar with the process. The payout, worth roughly USD 27.2 million, is coordinated between the lottery authority and financial regulators to ensure full compliance with anti-money laundering rules and transparent documentation. Once identity verification and regulatory checks are completed, the amount is transferred directly to the winner’s designated account without instalments or deductions, as the UAE does not apply taxes on lottery earnings. Authorities say large payouts of this scale require rigorous oversight to maintain public trust and set consistent legal precedent. The case has drawn wide public interest due to the unprecedented jackpot size.
