Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has launched a new driver training and licensing branch in Hatta, providing local residents with easier access to essential services and reducing the need to travel long distances for licensing procedures.
The new facility, developed in partnership with Emirates Driving Institute, is part of RTA’s wider strategy to improve public service delivery across Dubai by collaborating with the private sector. The branch offers a full suite of services, including traffic file openings, theory and practical training, driving tests, and licence issuance for motorcycles and light vehicles.
Ahmed Mahboob, CEO of RTA’s Licensing Agency, said the initiative reflects the authority’s commitment to enhancing community access to key services.
“This launch directly addresses the needs of Hatta’s residents and supports the region’s growth and quality of life,”
he stated.
The Hatta branch marks the 27th RTA-approved driver licensing centre in Dubai and aligns with the Dubai Government’s broader vision to boost infrastructure in emerging areas, especially those with growing tourism potential like Hatta.
The centre operates from Sunday to Friday, 8:15 AM to 11:00 PM, with breaks on Friday from 12:30 PM to 2:30 PM and a daily break from 2:30 PM to 3:30 PM. On Saturdays, it remains open for registration only, from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM.
This expansion underscores RTA’s continued focus on convenience, accessibility, and service excellence across all areas of the emirate.
