About UAE PASS:

UAE PASS is the first secure national digital identity for citizens and residents of the UAE. The app enables all registered individuals to access more than 5000 government, semi-government and private sector entities' services through their respective websites and apps and allows them to digitally sign and authenticate documents and transactions. UAE PASS also enables users to request a digital version of official documents issued to their name and to use the same to request services.

UAE PASS was launched during GITEX Technology Week 2018 as a joint initiative between the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA), Abu Dhabi Digital Authority and Smart Dubai. It is also supported by key strategic partners including the Federal Authority for Identity & Citizenship, the Dubai Electronic Security Centre, and all the digital authorities of the respective seven emirates of the UAE.

In September 2019, the UAE Central Bank adopted UAE PASS initiative allowing banks around the UAE to use it in processing banking transactions.

To enhance UAE PASS further and as part of the second implementation phase, UAE PASS now also enables users to request a digital version of their official documents, and to use them securely, to execute transactions and avail services from service providers when needed. This feature eliminates the need for paper and physical visits, saving you time and effort. It is also powered by blockchain technology, providing you with optimal traceability and security. The Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship is the first government entity to have included key official documents in UAE PASS, including Emirates ID, passports for citizens and residency for non-citizens.
