List of Emirates ID Biometrics Centers in UAE

Biometric Registration is an essential part of the Emirates ID application process. Therefore it is important to find an Emirates ID biometric center near me and visit it to complete the process to get an Emirates ID Card.

Getting an Emirates ID is mandatory for all UAE residents and citizens. It is illegal to stay in the UAE without a valid Emirates ID Card.

After Emirates ID form submission, the next step is to provide biometrics for Emirates ID i.e. your fingerprints and facial features. The biometrics registration service is available at all Emirates ID biometric centers in Abu Dhabi, Dubai and all other Emirates of the UAE.

Here I will share everything about the Emirates ID biometric center’s addresses and working hours. So, read this article carefully to locate a biometric center near me in United Arab Emirates.
