RTA Services in Dubai & the U.A.E.
RTA transactions are individually simple and collectively time-consuming. A licence transfer, a vehicle ownership change and a commercial permit renewal are three separate visits, three sets of documents and three chances to arrive with the wrong paper.
We take those off your calendar — for individuals moving to Dubai and for companies running vehicles, drivers and delivery operations that need permits kept current.

Questions
RTA Services — what clients ask
It depends on your nationality and the country that issued the licence — a defined list of countries qualifies for direct transfer without a test. If yours is not on the list, you will need to go through a driving institute. Send us the licence and we will tell you which applies.
No. Traffic fines attached to the vehicle must be settled before ownership transfers. We check the file first so the transaction is not refused at the counter.
Yes. Commercial and delivery vehicles require the appropriate RTA permit linked to your trade licence, and drivers require their own permit. Operating without them carries meaningful penalties, and we keep both current for fleet clients.
