The UAE’s Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Ports Security (ICP) has issued the warning Thursday morning via Twitter, denying information in the post which said that GCC citizens could get the Emirates ID card by just paying a fee.
“The Federal Authority for Identity, Citizen, Customs and Ports Security denies the promotional information attributed to it and circulated through social media channels about enabling citizens of the GCC to get the Emirates ID card for a fee only,” the post said.
The ICP added that the population registry to get the Emirates ID requires “fulfilling the requirements,” subject to terms and conditions in accordance with the regulating decisions, “which have not undergone any changes.”
The authority also advised community members to ignore the rumour and to seek correct information from the ICP’s verified channels and official government sources.
