The General Authority for Financial Supervision issued Decision No. 33 of 2009 to amend the regulatory criteria governing the registration, continuation, and deregistration of accountants in its official register. The decision mandates that applicants must be registered with the Central Auditing Organization while practicing outside the governmental sector and requires submission of documentation confirming the absence of final criminal judgments against them. It also revises the grounds for deregistration to explicitly penalize the submission of incomplete or inaccurate data through any forms, reports, or communications directed to the Authority or its Quality Control Unit.
