UAE residents will be able to now renew their driving licenses at Dubai International Airport.
Announced by Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), the service outlet will be located at Terminal 1 at the departure concourse and will open in the third quarter of the year.
Residents will have to first visit an eyesight testing centre and on clearing the test, will be able to issue or renew their license.
The license will be printed or delivered based on the preference selected.
The service will initially be available from 8am to 8pm and from 2023, will always be open.
Ahmed Mahboub, Executive Director, Drivers Licensing, Licensing Agency at RTA said, “Through this initiative, RTA seeks to play a pioneering role in delivering government services that respond to the needs of clients. It is part of RTA’s efforts to enhance social responsibility, simplify customer procedures and support the Dubai Government’s drive to engage the private sector in the delivery of services to all community members.”
