19 Jul July 19, 2016 New RTA’s system doesn’t require buyer or seller to visit registration centres Buyers and sellers of used cars in Dubai can now proceed with their transaction online at no additional cost and don’t have to personally visit the RTA’s registration and testing centres to complete the process, RTA announced on Saturday. “RTA has provided most of the used car showrooms in Dubai access to its sales transaction system that will reduce the steps required to process a car sale or purchase,” said Ahmad Hashem Behroozian, CEO of RTA’s Licensing Agency. He said that a number of car showrooms have already acquired the facility that will ease the process for all parties concerned. “Once the Emirates IDs of both the buyer and seller are scanned and the details of the vehicles are entered in the system, a traffic file will be automatically created in our system. Then the buyer and seller can send anyone to complete the transaction,” he added. He said that the system was introduced to protect the rights of both parties. “In many cases people are hesitant to make payments or hand over the vehicles. With this system, once the transaction is done online, a buyer can confidently pay the money and take the car or send any of his representatives for testing and registration,” he said. The seller, as well, doesn’t have to personally visit the registration centre any more. Just complete the transaction online and hand over the car to the buyer or his representative. If the buyer doesn’t have time, the job can be done by the seller’s PRO or the buyer’s representative,” he explained.
