Brief Introduction: Hello There Readers. The Watchtower, the foremost Web Design Agency Dubai, is bringing to you few tips on using the famous UAE pass in Dubai.
Now to the main discussion, the UAE [United Arab Emirates] in its bid to ensure a habitable place of residence amongst many things aims at being one of the best countries in the world by the Golden Jubilee of the Union on six strategic growth pillars. One of her core points for the Vision 2021 and UAE Centennial 2071 is to provide a sustainable environment and infrastructure which births a remarkable digital identity call the UAE Pass.
Aimed at having a digital identification solution for its citizens, the UAE Pass App was launched in 2018 as the very first national identity and signature solution that permits users to identify themselves to government service providers in all emirates through a smartphone-based authentication. The high point of this technology is that it allows users to digitally sign documents with a high level of security.
I know you must have considered if the UAE Pass serves the same function as the DubaiID or the SmartPass, well, let me use this medium to remind you that the SmartPass ended 31st December 2020 and every user before now had been advised to upgrade the app to the UAE Pass. Also, the DubaiID was limited to Dubai alone instead of the entire Emirate as intended for a broader range of government-related services across every Emirate.
The UAE Pass, therefore, enables UAE residents and visitors to access government services and make regular payments such as your home and mobile phone bills, as well as access to services such as DubaiNow and even legal processes such as applying for a residence visa or purchasing a property. This is possible with the use of the electronic signature; such that citizens find no need to visit service centers to sign sensitive documents since just by the use of their smartphone digitally signed documents could be validated using the UAE PASS platform. Under UAE law, one’s electronic signature will be legally binding. So, if one intends to use the UAE government’s smart services, you can use your UAE PASS signature to secure a new contract or just perhaps a large purchase, such as a property or car. You would agree with me that this is the first time in the region that digital signature solutions have been made available.
