Hi there,
1. I come from India & have got driving licenses from Saudi Arabia and Qatar where I have driven for more that 3 years. Is it possible to directly convert into a Dubai License as news is rife that they have stopped doing that?
2. What is the waiting time for getting a driving retest. Is it 1month or 1 week as per the latest rules.

Dude, the rule here is if you don't ask you don't get. If you have your residence visa already don't wait go to Dubai traffic police HQ in SZR. Ask for conversion. If you're lucky GCC license is still accepted and chances are the new rule is only being gazetted. What have you got to lose?..Worse of is they'll ask you to go read the newspaper and go get a few lessons. :wink:

Dear Friends,
I'm working as an Electrical Engineer, in Abu Dhabi.
I may get transfer to Dubai after 1 year.
The company is going to apply for my Employment Visa. Since they are having branches in Dubai & Abu Dhabi , they can get either Visa from both of these emirates. Also I can tell them, which visa to take.
I have heard that , Taking Driving License in Abu Dhabi is tougher compared to that of Dubai...Is it true ?
Which is more easier to take ? Driving License from Abu Dhabi or from Dubai ?
How many tests will be there in Abu Dhabi ? How long will it take to get a call to go for driving lessons , after opening the file ?
Please share your opinions with me..
