A total of Dh12,825,000 will be paid as bonuses to taxi number plate owners in Dubai.

In his capacity as Ruler of Dubai, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE, ordered the bonus to citizens whose taxi number plates are used by Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).

Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) will begin distributing the bonuses to owners of 2,565 taxi number plates during the holy month of Ramadan.

This is in addition to their annual dues.

In a statement, Mattar Mohammed Al Tayer, Director General and Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of RTA, thanked His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum for his generous gesture.

"This bonus is one of several of His Highness’s gestures during Ramadan to enhance the welfare of citizens. The payments particularly reflect his keenness to support fixed income earners and disadvantaged families. Apart from enhancing their wellbeing and happiness, the initiative also contributes to boosting social solidarity," said Al Tayer.
