If you’ve received a traffic fine in Abu Dhabi, paying it promptly can help reduce the amount you owe. In 2024, 1.4 million vehicle owners took advantage of Abu Dhabi’s pre-payment discount program, saving up to 35% on fines. To further assist motorists, Abu Dhabi Police offers the option to pay fines in installments.
Here’s how you can take advantage of these options:
- Receive Fine Notification: You’ll get an SMS on your registered number detailing the violation, including your car’s number plate, the fine amount, and the location of the offense.
- Check Fine Details: The SMS will include a link to the Tamm website, where you can view the exact fine amount and any applicable discounts. The sooner you pay, the higher your discount—up to 35% if paid early, and 25% if paid within two months.
- Payment Methods: After viewing your fine, you can pay via credit card, Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, or Google Pay. If you plan to pay in installments, use a credit card.
- Installment Plan: After payment, click on ‘Check Installment’ to explore installment options with partner banks (First Abu Dhabi Bank, Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank, Mashreq Islamic Bank, Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank, Emirates Islamic Bank). You can choose a 3, 6, or 12-month payment plan.
- Request Installment: Enter your credit card details and select your preferred installment duration. You’ll receive a confirmation once the request is processed, and you can see the installment amount on your credit card bill.
This initiative encourages timely payments and offers a flexible way to manage fines.
