There are currently 6542 numbers plates and the Dubai Taxi will start payment of due amounts to entitled individuals along with the annual payable dues.
H.E. Mattar Al Tayer, Chairman of the Board & Executive Director of the RTA praised this gesture from HH Sheikh Mohammed of rewarding owners of public taxi number plates, most of whom have limited income. "This payment will help them and their families lead a better life and cope with living requirements."
"Such a reward is one of the several bounties HH used to offer to citizens; which are sheer reflection of the attention and follow-up by HH of the living and social conditions of his people, particularly those with limited income. In fact it marks the attention of HH to ensure good living standard to all community segments and demonstrate and enhance the existing social cooperation between community members," added Al Tayer.
