How to get a permit to go caravan camping on the beach?

Looking to go caravan camping on Dubai Jebel Ali beach?

In over a month after closing its only caravan camping beach site, Dubai Municipality on Sunday announced that it will allow camping with caravans on the Jebel Ali beach.

On September 16, the civic body had asked caravan owners camping on the Al Sufouh Beach, the only beach that allowed caravan camping earlier, to vacate the site and wait for the announcement about an alternative site.

Dubai Municipality has outlined the steps needed to obtain a no-objection certificate to camp on public beaches.

According to an official social media post, the certificate will allow campers to stay on public beaches for up to 30 days.

Camping enthusiasts are only required to provide a valid copy of the ownership of the caravan or trailer and a copy of the Emirates ID or that of the passport in the case of the visitors, the municipality said. “Once the applicant enters the necessary data and documents online, the permit is issued immediately and directly, which allows the holder to camp in the specified location for 30 days,” it added.

Here is how you can get one:

1. Log in to the Dubai Municipality Website
2. Apply for the service
3. Receive the NOC through the website
