Seamless
RTA Compliance
for Your Fleet
In Dubai, any form of commercial vehicle branding - from a simple logo on a car door to a full bus wrap - is legally classified as mobile advertising. To display these graphics, every business must hold a valid RTA Advertising Permit. Navigating the strict regulations of the Roads and Transport Authority can be complex, involving specific design standards, language rules, and documentation.
At Printr, we act as your RTA compliance partner. We don't just print your graphics; we manage the complete permit application and renewal cycle. Our team ensures your designs meet every government standard before they hit the road, protecting your business from fines and operational delays.

Guidelines
To receive approval, your vehicle branding must adhere to several mandatory requirements:
- Language Standards: At least 50% of the text must be in Arabic, with the Arabic content occupying the upper or right-hand side of the design.
- Content Restrictions: Designs must exactly match your trade license activities. Prohibited content includes images of real people, religious or political messages, and smoking symbols.
- Design Limitations: To ensure road safety, branding is prohibited on windows (except for approved perforated vinyl on the rear) and must not obstruct driver visibility, mirrors, or license plates.
- Material Quality: The RTA mandates the use of professionally applied, high-quality self-adhesive vinyl; peeling or damaged graphics can result in fines.
