What Happens If Your Car Registration Expires In Dubai

Oct 7, 2024 - 1 min read

When your registration expires, you get a grace period of 30 days. During this time, you won’t face any fines for renewal, but late fees will apply. If you don’t renew within that grace period, driving your car is off the table. You could face fines of around 500 dirhams, and your car might get confiscated for up to 7 days.
Plus, you’ll receive 4 black points, and your car won’t be insurable anymore. Remember, the grace period is none other than the insurance expiry date on your registration card.
So, for your peace of mind, make sure to renew your registration before that grace period ends. Drive safe!
