Getting an NOC (no-objection certificate) to apply for a driver’s licence can now be done with a click of a button and in under three minutes.
The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) announced on Wednesday that it has set up an online system enabling employers to issue NOCs to their employees seeking to obtain driver licenses.
“The system saves the time of applicant as the NOC can be issued in less than three minutes, besides saving the hassles of preparing and endorsing letters and enhancing the governance of transactions,” said Jamal Assada, director of drivers licensing at RTA’s Licensing Agency.
“The initiative, which conforms to the Smart City initiative, requires the concerned company to sign-up in RTA website (www.rta.ae) and open an account for the transaction to avail the benefit of issuing the NOC online,” he added.
“Developing this online system caters to the needs of business organisations for a standardised online system for the issuance of NOCs to some categories of employees who are required to present such NOCs for obtaining driver licenses,” Assada underlined.
The RTA said the new process will result in the gradual phase-out of the existing paper-based transactions and boost the smart transformation of all services in line with its strategic goals of Smart Dubai and People Happiness.
