FAQs
  • Question 1: Can the customer apply for this transaction online if the vehicle ownership was transferred to another person?

Answer 1: If the vehicle ownership was transferred to another person in Dubai, the system will view the vehicle as registered and the customer needs to proceed to Customer Happiness Center - Deira and apply for this transaction.
