30-day grace to register expired vehicles: RAK police

Ras Al Khaimah: If you drive a vehicle with expired registration here, then you have 30 days to make it right.

The month-long grace period was announced by the Vehicle and Drivers Licensing Department at Ras Al Khaimah Police on Wednesday.

Beyond the 30-day grace, negligent owners who failed to renew their vehicle registration would face serious consequences, authorities warned.

De-registration

The department announced that vehicles with registration that expired on or before January 1, 2019 are scheduled for de-registration.

To avoid that, vehicle owners are urged to take advantage of the one-month window to settle the status and renew the registration of their vehicles before the process of complete de-registration begins.

The 30-day grace kicked off on July 12, 2023.

According to UAE Traffic Federal Law, driving a vehicle with expired registration calls for a fine of Dh400, four traffic points and 7-day impoundment.
