Your Emirates ID is a very useful in UAE and it serves numerous functions such as government services, payments, and getting a discount. However, if your actual physical card is under renewal, replacement or even lost? In a way that is not at all as inconvenient as it may seem, a digital Emirates ID is virtually the same as a physical one in terms of efficiency and usability.

Now, allowing me to make an Emirates ID digital self-identity easily in few steps below.

Using the UAE Pass App

Now citizens of the UAE can use the UAE Pass application and get access to certain public online services. Follow these steps to download your digital Emirates ID:

  • Lauch the UAE Pass application on your smartphone and go to the Federal Authority for Identity,
  • Citizenship, Customs and Port Security section.
  • Select ‘Emirates ID Card.’
  • This information must be then verified by the impassive face scan.
  • Get the copy of the digital Emirates ID.

Through the UAEICP App

The UAEICP app is another tool for accessing public services and obtaining a digital Emirates ID:

  • On the main window, press on ‘Emirates ID’.

Accessing via QR Code

For added convenience, you can use the QR code feature in the UAEICP app:
