What are the car insurance options for newcomers in Dubai?

In Dubai, newcomers can expect to pay between AED 1,500 to AED 3,000 for basic car insurance annually, depending on the car model and coverage type. As someone who moved to Dubai last year, I found that popular insurance providers like AXA and Oman Insurance offer various packages catering to expats, often with 24/7 roadside assistance included. It’s essential to compare quotes and check for any hidden fees before making a decision. Pro tip: Make sure to have a copy of your UAE residency visa and Emirates ID when applying for insurance to avoid any delays!
