10 government entities and 38,000 users registered in MyID
Dubai Police has joined Dubai Smart Government’s MyID service for ensuring a single sign-on to and interacting with Dubai government services through smart phones or the Internet in collaboration with Emirates Identity Authority (EIDA), bringing to 10 the number of entities participating in the service.
Dubai Police customers can now register in the service to obtain a single sign-on (username and password) related to MyID, which gives them access to a large array of services provided by the police through smart phones and enables them to apply for these services via the Internet. These services include paying traffic fines, reporting a crime, reporting a traffic accident, applying for clearance certificate, inquiring about status of roads, applying for good conduct certificate, requesting to communicate with suppliers, reporting a bounced cheque, filing tourist security complaints, requesting change of vehicle’s colour and other services provided by the other government entities participating in the service.
H.E. Ahmad Bin Humaidan, Director General of Dubai Smart Government, said: “Dubai Smart Government strives to provide the infrastructure and shared services to enable government entities to give the public smooth access to their services round the clock wherever they are, thereby contributing effectively to full transformation into smart government and to Dubai becoming the smartest city in the world in implementation of the initiative of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, to shift to smart government and also the directives of HH Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of Dubai Executive Council, to provide a single PIN to each customer in line with his “Dubai Government Towards 2021” initiative, enabling customers to have a single sign-on to all government services and interact with them on smart phones or via the Internet.”
