RTA to Auction off 300 special plates online

Late last week, the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) Dubai will auction off 300 distinct 4 and 5 digit plates at its 60th online auction.

Registration opens today (Sunday, 1st of June) with the online auction starting at 8 am on the 7th of June. The online exclusive auction will conclude after five days according to the RTA.

Plates on offer have the following codes; A-J-K-L-M-N-O-P-Q-R-S-T.

All bidders must have a traffic file opened and valid in Dubai. The auction is subject to 5% VAT. Bidders must also hand over a security cheque for AED 5,000 made to the RTA and pay a non-refundable participation fee of AED 120.

Payments can be made via the Dubai Drive app or the RTA’s website by credit card. Alternatively, payments can be made in person via Customer Happiness Centres in Umm Ramool, Al Barsha and Diera.

“Online auctions are particularly appealing to a large segment of the community as they offer fans the liberty of selecting their fancied plates in a hassle-free environment.” Said the RTA.

The RTA’s call centre has been boosted by a dedicated team of agents ready to assist the public if they have inquires relating to the upcoming online auction.

The RTA’s call centre is toll-free and you can contact them on 800 90 90.

Will there be a new record for the “Most Expensive Number Plate Ever Sold”? Probably not, but you can expect some big money being spent on special plates.
