Dubai (International Desk) Parking facility is provided for a minimum of 6 days during Eid al-Fitr holidays in Dubai. The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) in Dubai has announced that parking fees will be waived from 29 Ramadan to 3 Shawwal (according to the Islamic calendar).
This means that there will be no charge for parking from Monday 8th April until 12th April if Eid-ul-Fitr falls on 10th April. As parking is already free on Sundays in Dubai, drivers can take advantage of free parking for six consecutive days across the emirate.
However, if Eid-ul-Fitr falls on April 9, free parking will only apply for 5 days when the moon is visible. Paid parking will resume on 4th Shawwal, the fourth day of Eid.
In addition, RTA has released operating times for all its services during the Eid al-Fitr holiday. Vehicle inspection centers will be open on 29 Ramadan and 3 Shawwal.
