Do you need a driver’s license in another country? The following steps will guide you in the process of issuing a Driver Experience Certificate:

Have you lately relocated to another country, whether it be for employment or school? If so, you might find it easier to get a driving license in your new place of residence if you have driving experience in the UAE.

You can also apply for a “Driver Experience Certificate” to verify your driving experience in the United Arab Emirates if your driver’s license was issued in Dubai. If you are applying for a driving license in the UK or in some other European countries, the authorities may inquire about your history and background as a driver as a condition of issuing a driver’s license, according to the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) call center in Dubai, located at 800 9090.

Through the “RTA Dubai Drive” mobile application, which is accessible on Apple and Android smartphones, RTA enables users to apply for a “Driver Experience Certificate,” also known as the “To Whom It May Concern” certificate.

How do one get the ‘Driver Experience Certificate’ online?

You must make sure that any penalties and fees owed to RTA have been paid before applying for the service. Following the completion of all payments, you should take the following actions to issue a “Driver Experience Certificate”:

6. Press the red button to scan your driver’s license card back after that.
7. The data will be entered into the form after the app scans the driver’s license’s barcode.
8. Your license number, issue date, birth year, and traffic file number will automatically be filled in after you have scanned the card.
9. The app will then display your license data after the details have been entered. Click the “next” button if the information is accurate.

If one has the ‘Driver Experience Certificate’ will it be accepted by a foreign country?

RTA claims that in order for the experience certificate to be recognised by other nations, it must first receive authentication and attestation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MOFAIC) of the United Arab Emirates.

How does one get it attested in the UAE?

Through the MOFAIC smartphone application, “UAE MOFAIC,” which is accessible for Apple and Android devices, or through the MOFAIC official website, www.mofaic.gov.ae, you can obtain your documents authenticated online. The attestation service is priced at Dh150.
