Compliance among licensing service providers in Dubai increased by 20% in 2024 compared to the previous year, following intensified inspection and audit operations by the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), the authority said on Monday.
RTA conducted approximately 579,000 inspections and audits on licensing activities in 2024, a 20% rise from 2023, while recorded violations fell by 3%, according to a statement issued by the Government of Dubai Media Office.
“The year 2024 witnessed a significant improvement in inspection operations, driven by intensified field monitoring and the adoption of more precise and targeted inspection mechanisms,” said Ahmed Mahboob, CEO of RTA’s Licensing Agency.

Mahboob attributed the improvement to the use of advanced data analysis technologies and violation detection tools, which enhanced inspection accuracy.
“Strengthened collaboration with relevant authorities has fostered greater regulatory coordination, leading to higher compliance levels and more effective inspection processes,” he said.
RTA also expanded its inspection and awareness campaigns, conducting 30 campaigns in collaboration with nine entities across the emirate. These efforts aimed to enhance awareness across various sectors and strengthen compliance among licensed establishments.
“The decline in violations in 2024 compared to the previous year reflects RTA’s proactive role in educating licensed establishments and reinforcing compliance with regulations, standards, and requirements,” Mahboob said.
He added that the authority is implementing development initiatives to further enhance operational efficiency as part of its broader development plans.
