Online Renewal of Emirates ID

Ryan | UAE | November 13, 2013

If you are asking yourself : where is the nearest typing center to renew my ID ? 

Well, I have some good news for you.

No, the nearest typing center is still in Ghayathi.

The good news is  : You can now renew your Emirates ID online and you do not need to go for typing office anymore. Just visit http://www.id.gov.ae/en

So, when the time comes, just relax and apply for id renewal from the comfort of your home.

But that s not all.

According to id application page : http://www.id.gov.ae/en/services/e-services/online-form.aspx

You can now do online the following services :

• Apply for Emirates ID card (first time registration)
• Apply for renewing Emirates ID card
• Apply for replacement of your damaged/lost Emirates ID card
• Check the status of your submitted application created through the same account

No more waiting in line, no more opening and closing time, no more communication problems to the typist.

In the future, we can only hope that another important service gets completely automated and applications can be done online. I am referring to the visa application process. In shaa Allah that day will come soon.
