The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has a program called "Golden Chance" that aims to make the process of getting a driver's license easier. This implies that residents of particular nations who relocated to the UAE are exempt from the need for driving courses and can seek to take a driving test there instead.
Excellence Driving will provide you with guidance on how to proceed with the application procedure if you decide to go the Golden Chance path. The next steps will be as follows:
- Eye Test: Get your eyes examined at any optical store in the UAE that is registered with the RTA.
- Theory Test: Take the theory test at Excellence Driving to demonstrate your understanding of traffic laws, road signs, and hazard mitigation.
- Road Test: You will be scheduled for the "Golden Chance" road exam following your passing the theory test.
