Motorists in the UAE can now renew their driving licences online, the Ministry of Interior tweeted.

All driving licences will be renewed online notwithstanding fines, black points or pending eye tests.

The renewal will be valid for one year from the date of issuance.

A similar injunction was issued earlier this week, when motorists in the UAE were allowed to renew their vehicles’ registration cards without having to visit any service delivery centre.
