Requirements details and guidelines:

1.     Open a Traffic File

In order to keep the roads in Dubai flowing smoothly, authorities have put into place a number of rules and regulations for motorists. One such regulation is that all new cars must be registered with the Traffic Department within 14 days of purchase. This guide will provide an overview of the process for registering a new car in Dubai. Procedures may vary depending on your nationality and place of residence so it’s always best to check with the Traffic Department before starting any paperwork.

2.     Original Emirates ID:

Car registration in Dubai just got a little bit easier. All residents now have the option of using their Emirates ID card to register their vehicles. This new process makes it simpler and faster to get your car registered, so you can hit the road sooner.

3.     Copy of Passport:

In the United Arab Emirates, it is mandatory to have a copy of your passport when you are registering a new vehicle. This is a precautionary measure to ensure that all drivers are who they say they are. Here’s more information on what you’ll need to bring with you when you go to register your new car.

4.     UAE customs card/possession certificate:

If you are a resident of Dubai and own a new car, you will need to obtain a customs card/possession certificate from the UAE Customs Department in order to register your vehicle. The process is relatively straightforward, and can be completed in just a few minutes at the nearest customs office. Make sure to have your passport and driver’s license ready, as you will need to provide copies of both documents. In addition, you will also need to provide the original purchase invoice for your car. If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to contact the UAE Customs Department for assistance.

5.     Electronic or physical sale agreement between showroom and buyer:

When buying or selling a car, it is important to have an agreement in place that outlines the sale. This agreement can be electronically generated, or it can be a physical document. Typically, the buyer and seller will both sign the document to show their agreement. There are many items that should be included in a car sale agreement, such as the price of the car, the date of the sale, and any warranties or guarantees that are being offered. Having this written agreement can help to avoid any disputes down the road.

6.     Car Insurance (valid for 6 months or more)

Car insurance is a legal requirement in Dubai, and all drivers must have valid cover for the vehicles they are driving. If you are planning to drive your own car in Dubai, it is important to understand the rules and regulations around vehicle insurance, and to find an insurer that can provide the cover you need.

7.     Letter from the bank (if the car has been financed)

If you have financed your car, one day you may receive a letter from the bank. This letter will be from the lender, and it will request that you send them information pertaining to the car. The letter might ask for the current mileage on the car or the vehicle identification number (VIN). It’s important to respond to this letter as quickly as possible so that there is no delay in getting your loan payments processed. Failure to do so could result in late fees or even having your car repossessed. So, if you receive a letter from your lender, make sure to take care of it right away!
