Important to Know
You Should Know
- The owner of the vehicle must agree on disclosing its data.
- This report doesn't include the vehicle accidents data.
- The owner has the right to request detailed inspection data of a vehicle of any type in case it has been inspected for the first time in Dubai, as a registered vehicle inspection record. In other cases, such as when a vehicle is exported without plates, the owner is only provided with data relating to the chassis number. Therefore, the centralised inspection system allows the vehicle data to be entered for the purpose of registration, renewal, and export with plates, in which cases its detailed data is saved and the owner can obtain it.
