UAE PASS is the country’s first national digital identity, linked to the Emirates ID, and can be used by all citizens, residents, and visitors to the country. With a single username and password, the UAE PASS allows you to log in and access thousands of services across the public and private sectors. This gives you a trusted digital identity, eliminates the need to memorize multiple usernames and passwords, and provides access to over 12,000 government, semi-government, and private sector services—all from the comfort of your home.
The UAE PASS enables you to identify yourself to service providers across all emirates via smartphone-based authentication. You can request a digital version of your documents from various entities in the UAE through the app or online portal. To share your signature, download a document, add your digital signature through the UAE PASS app or its online portal, and then securely transfer the document as needed. Please note, however, that your digital signature will expire after three years.
If you want to add another layer of security, the UAE PASS offers a facial biometric transaction confirmation feature. Once integrated, the app prompts you to look into your smartphone's camera and authenticates the correct user through facial biometric markers. To do this, go to the document and tap on the 'Verify Signature' tool. The app will confirm whether the digital signature has been validated by UAE PASS.
This highly efficient, streamlined process means you don’t have to visit your bank, municipal office, or telecommunications provider separately—access them all with one login in a secure environment. All online transactions are secure and traceable thanks to blockchain technology. The UAE PASS was developed through the collaboration of Digital Dubai, Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority (TDRA), and the Department of Government Enablement and launched in 2018.
