The system has also a number-plate reading camera that helps to identify the subscriber’s information, granting them easy access to the facility.

The subscriptions can be applied via ITC’s website or by visiting its Customer Happiness Centre located at Abu Dhabi Municipality, or Abu Dhabi Government Service Centres – TAMM. Applicants are required to furnish their Emirates Id and vehicle ownership card, with the subscription card granted immediately after the documents are furnished and fees are paid.
