Abu Dhabi Traffic Fine Check by Plate Number

For an Abu Dhabi traffic fine check, use TAMM (log in with UAE PASS), the Abu Dhabi Police app or e-services portal, or the federal MOI UAE app, which can search by plate number, traffic code, licence or Emirates ID. Abu Dhabi Police gives a 35% discount if you pay within 60 days of the violation and 25% if you pay after 60 days but within one year, except for serious violations. Partner banks also offer interest-free instalments. Paying through TAMM has no additional cost.

Abu Dhabi traffic fine discounts

When you pay	Discount
Within 60 days of the violation	35%
After 60 days and within one year of the fine being issued	25%
Serious violations	Not eligible for the 35% discount

Abu Dhabi Police runs this under its “Pay Early” initiative. It has also denied rumours of a 50% discount in the past, so rely only on the amount shown in official channels. Discounts are applied automatically when you pay through official platforms such as TAMM and the Abu Dhabi Police website.

Discount example

Original fine	Paid within 60 days (35% off)	Paid after 60 days, within a year (25% off)	Paid after a year
AED 400	AED 260	AED 300	AED 400
AED 800	AED 520	AED 600	AED 800
AED 1,000	AED 650	AED 750	AED 1,000

The examples assume the violation is eligible. Serious violations do not get the 35% discount, so check the amount shown before you pay.

Paying in instalments

Partner banks offer interest-free instalment plans for Abu Dhabi traffic fines using their credit cards. Banks named in Abu Dhabi Police announcements include FAB, ADCB, ADIB and Mashreq. Check the current bank list and minimum amount with your bank or in the Abu Dhabi Police app.

Fine amounts and black points

Abu Dhabi Police’s public e-services include a Fines’ Materials Inquiry that shows the value and black points for each traffic violation code, so you can check what a specific violation costs. The same portal offers a Vehicle’s Accidents Inquiry, a Payment Receipts Inquiry and a Reserved Plates Inquiry.

Black points and licence suspension

Many violations add black points as well as a fine. Under the UAE’s black points system, drivers who build up 24 points within a year can have their licence suspended, for longer periods on repeat suspensions, and may need to attend a traffic course to get it back. Check your points in your traffic profile on TAMM, the Abu Dhabi Police app or the MOI app.

Statements, history and clearance certificates

• Traffic Fines Statement and Traffic Fines History on TAMM show what you owe and what you have paid.
• Traffic Fines Clearance Certificate on TAMM confirms you have no outstanding fines, which is useful when leaving a job or exporting a car.
• TAMM also lists a service to issue financial receipts for paid fines.

Darb tolls and Mawaqif parking

Darb road toll and Mawaqif parking fines in Abu Dhabi are handled by the Integrated Transport Centre, not as police traffic fines. Check them in the Darb app or on TAMM. Our Darb timing and toll guide explains peak hours and charges.

Fines from other emirates

The MOI app shows fines from all emirates. For Dubai, see our Dubai black points check and Dubai Police services; for Sharjah, our Sharjah traffic fine check by plate number.

Tips for drivers in Abu Dhabi

• Abu Dhabi speed cameras have been set to the posted limit since 2018, without the old grace margin, so stay at or below the sign.
• Keep a safe distance and avoid sudden lane changes; tailgating and swerving are common camera-detected violations.
• Stop for school buses with their stop sign out, which is a serious violation if ignored.
• Link your vehicles in TAMM so you are notified of new fines quickly and can pay within the 35% window.

What happens if fines stay unpaid?

• You cannot renew vehicle registration until the fines on it are paid.
• Ownership transfers are blocked while fines remain.
• Serious violations can also lead to vehicle impounding and black points.
• You lose the 35% or 25% discount once the deadlines pass.

Before buying a used car, check its fines and insurance; our guide on checking car insurance in the UAE helps.

Official sources: TAMM’s Traffic Fines Payment service, Fines and Violations services and Abu Dhabi Police e-services. Discounts can change, so check the amount shown before you pay.
