Abu Dhabi mandates new permits for freight drivers
Operators have six months to realign their activities as per the new rule
Abu Dhabi's Integrated Transport Center announced on Wednesday that freight transporters will now need to apply for a number of new permits.
According to the Abu Dhabi Media Office, operators must now obtain permits from Asateel, the authority's integrated fleet-tracking platform that authorises the driver to transport cargo, operate a cargo vehicle, and practice professional driving.
The new rule applies to both heavy and light freight carriers, and operators will have a six-month grace period to realign their activities.
