It's basically accepted practice to trade and accept bitcoin, in the UAE, it seems. I mean, the governor of the central bank itself has said that bitcoin is essentially exempt for the ban on "virtual currencies", and there are still a major exchange in BitOasis operational, which wouldn't happen if bitcoin was banned in UAE.
I don't think crypto currency is legal in U.A.E. They are pretty much maintaining a neutral status until recently by defining crypto currencies as "high risk investment". Also they are seeing crypto currencies as a tool for money laundering and terrorism financing. So they are on the way to prepare a legal framework for governing smart contracts, liability matters, dispute settlement mechanisms and taxation of generated transactions and profits. So it is not the right time to say "crypto currency is legal in U.A.E". The businesses are allowed to operate because of the absence of a proper legal framework but we don't really know what will happen in the future.
Legalization and allowing something are probably two different things. Most countries like you said, are negative to neutral on bitcoin. UAE seems to be the same right now. New regulations probably will come soon to clarify these misleading and confusing details.

It is legal and there is BitOasis, an exchange that allow you to buy crypto using AED. It's worth mentioning that they made an announcement about suspending (4th June) Dirham deposits and withdrawals yesterday.

Am a Newbie and want to know if bitcoin is legal in UNITED ARAB EMIRATES
UAE seem to be super open to everything related to blockchain and bitcoin. I believe Telegram has established a company there to perform its ICO, which means they got green light from government.
The United Arab Emirates government should give legality for Bitcoin and other crypto currency. I think it will be vital for their economy and marketplace.
It is legal and more than that they have a special exchange for it. I think it is a great country to live in and do Crypto business.
I think, The government United Arab Emirates will allow Bitcoin beside their regular currency. I kow They already has a crypto using AED.
It is legal and there is BitOasis, an exchange that allow you to buy crypto using AED. It's worth mentioning that they made an announcement about suspending (4th June) Dirham deposits and withdrawals yesterday.

I know Dubai is fairly pro Crypto not sure about the whole of the UAE but I would imagine they would all have a united view on crypto.
