Roads & Transport Authority, Dubai

RTA Services

Whether it is renewing a company car, transferring ownership or converting a driving licence, DocTrust handles the RTA paperwork so you spend less time at service centres. We also support the equivalent traffic and licensing departments in other emirates.

Quick answer

The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) handles road and transport services in Dubai, including vehicle registration and renewal, ownership transfer, driving licence issue, renewal and conversion, Salik, parking permits and commercial transport permits. Other emirates provide these through their own traffic and licensing departments. DocTrust prepares and submits the applications for individuals and companies.

DRIVING LICENCE

  • Vehicle registration and annual renewal (including insurance and testing coordination)

RTA Services: common questions

Can I convert my foreign driving licence in the UAE?

Holders from eligible countries can often convert directly. Others need training and tests. We check your eligibility before you apply.

Do you handle company vehicle renewals?

Yes. We renew company vehicle registrations, handle ownership transfers and keep reminders so the fleet stays compliant.

Is RTA only for Dubai?

Yes, RTA serves Dubai. Other emirates have their own traffic and licensing departments, and we handle those transactions as well.
