Emirates ID Fine Checking Online in Minute

Written by Kritika

All the residents of the UAE including expats must possess an Emirates ID. It is the main identity proof that’s also popularly known as Resident Card. It is issued by the Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship (ICA). It has 15 digits consisting of the cardholder’s personal details. The card has the photo, basic details like name, contact number, date of birth, and biometric information of the cardholder.

If you are in the UAE and exceed the speed limit while driving or don’t pay any of the driving fines, it can cost you a lot. The UAE government is really strict about laws to ensure the safety of drivers, passengers, and pedestrians. Read on to find how you check emirates ID fines and pay them online.

Types of fines charged on Emirates ID

Given below are the types of fines that can be charged to you –

Jaywalking                                                                                                                

This penalty applies to pedestrians who cross roads without using pedestrian lanes. People are also fined if they ignore traffic lights while crossing roads. The fine amount is AED 400. The jaywalking charges are applicable to motorists as well. The amount is AED 500 when drivers cross the speed limit near zebra crossings.

Drivers and motorists can be charged under different types of violations. For example, reckless driving means a charge of AED 2000, or driving a vehicle with no number plates attracts a fine of AED 1000.
