How to check the fine for traffic violations when renting a car in Dubai?


Renting a car in Dubai gives tourists and people living there the freedom to move and the chance to explore the city and its surroundings at their own pace. However, as everywhere else, Dubai has traffic regulations, for non-compliance with which fines are issued. It is important to understand how to ensure that there are no fines in order to avoid unpleasant situations when returning a rented car or when leaving the country.

Verification methods:

Online services

The easiest and fastest way is to use online platforms. The official website of the Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) allows you to check fines by car number, driver’s license number or information about the owner. There are also third-party applications and websites that collect information about fines, but it is important to make sure that their information is reliable and up-to-date.

The Dubai Police App

The Dubai Police mobile app offers a wide range of services, including checking fines for traffic violations. It is necessary to register in the application and add information about the rented car.

Car rental company

Many car rental companies offer a penalty check service. When returning the car, the company’s employees can check for fines and inform you about it.

Personal visit

As a last resort, you can personally visit the RTA office or the Dubai police station to find out about the fines.

What will be required for verification:

– Vehicle registration number (vehicle license plate).

– The number of the tenant’s driver’s license.

– Owner’s details (if known).

Important points:

Fines can be issued within a few days after the violation. It is recommended to check for fines a few days before returning the car.

Failure to pay fines may result in delayed departure from the country or other legal problems.

Car rental companies usually charge an additional fee for processing fines, so it’s better to check and pay for them yourself.

Timely verification and payment of fines for traffic violations will help to avoid problems and ensure a comfortable stay in Dubai.
