Formalities at the Destination in Dubai
Strict adherence to destination formalities is crucial when shipping a vehicle to Dubai. It's important to note that vehicles in Dubai are left-hand drive, and if your vehicle is right-hand drive, it cannot be registered in the UAE. Additionally, being a legal resident of the UAE is a prerequisite, requiring a local visa and a valid local driving license. Vehicles older than 10 years may necessitate special permission from the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) before shipping to the UAE.
