One App for Daily Government Tasks

Dubai Now gathers services from ICP, RTA, DEWA, DHA, and Dubai Municipality under a single account. Expats use the app to renew visas, pay traffic fines, settle utility bills, and book health appointments without visiting separate portals or counters.

Account Setup and Login

Download Dubai Now from the App Store or Google Play. Verify your Emirates ID and mobile number to create a UAE Pass-linked profile. Once logged in, the app pulls your existing ICP visa records, DEWA account number, and RTA vehicle details automatically.

Key Services Available in 2026

  • ICP visa status checks, renewals, and family sponsorship requests.
  • RTA traffic fine payments and vehicle registration renewals with instant digital receipts.
  • DEWA bill viewing and scheduled payments, including security deposit top-ups.
  • DHA medical fitness and vaccination appointment booking with same-day confirmation.
  • Dubai Municipality trade licence renewals and inspection slot requests.

Payments and Notifications

The app accepts Apple Pay, Google Pay, and UAE bank cards. Fines and bills under AED 5,000 clear in under two minutes. Push notifications alert you 30 days before visa or licence expiry and 7 days before DEWA due dates. Payment history is stored for 12 months and can be exported as PDF for employer or bank use.

Workflow Tips for Expats

Link your salary account for recurring DEWA and RTA payments to avoid late fees. Use the calendar view to align medical appointments with your ICP visa renewal window. If a service shows a pending status for more than 48 hours, open a ticket inside the app; response times average one working day. For family visas, the primary sponsor can add up to five dependents and track each application in the same dashboard.

Security and Data Control

Dubai Now uses UAE Pass for two-factor authentication. You can revoke app access anytime through the ICP portal or by contacting ICP support. Location data is only used when you request a service that needs it, such as nearest RTA service centre directions.
