If you are planning to come and work in any of the seven states of UAE, you should first have to get an Emirates ID. Emirates Identity Authority monitors the whole procedure. Emirates ID can use it for transactions, paying bills, paying fines, registering vehicles, and much more. There are three ways to get Emirates ID. In this article, we will Attach Emirates Identity Authority Branches location and their timing in case you want to visit any of the branch.
The expiration date of your UAE ID depends on the validity of your resident visa. If your visa is valid for two years, your identity will only be valid for two years. And it is essential to renew your ID card temporarily (maximum within 30 days of expiration).
There will be a 20 AED penalty for each day of overstay. But you have a slight chance of forgetting about it: each time your resident visa is renewed or reissued, the ICA reminds you to apply for a new card via SMS.
How to apply for an Emirates ID
You can get your Emirates ID with three methods:
(1)- You can go to the ICA website and submit an online application for a new Emirates ID.
