UAE black points removal gives drivers a chance to clear four points by signing up and driving safely on August 31.
ABU DHABI: Have black points on your UAE driving record? You could get four of them removed by simply signing up for Accident Free Day and following the traffic rules on August 31, 2026.
Registration opens on August 17 through the Ministry of Interior’s online platform. Drivers who want to join need to register and sign a pledge saying they will follow traffic rules and drive safely throughout the day. It is a simple way to encourage motorists to be more careful while also giving eligible drivers a useful benefit.
Once you have registered, the next part is easy: drive safely on August 31. That means following speed limits, keeping enough distance from the car in front, wearing your seat belt, staying away from your phone while driving and avoiding any traffic violations. Drivers who complete the requirements can qualify for UAE black points removal.

And there is no extra paperwork afterwards. Successful participants will have four black points automatically removed from their traffic record on September 25. Drivers will not need to submit another request to have the points cleared.
Accident Free Day is about more than just removing black points. The campaign wants people to think about the small things they do every time they get behind the wheel. Checking a phone for a few seconds, driving too close to another car or speeding to save a little time can quickly lead to an accident.
The idea is to make August 31 a day when everyone pays a little more attention on the road. If thousands of drivers slow down, stay focused and follow the rules, it can make roads safer for motorists, passengers, cyclists and pedestrians.
For people who already have black points, there is an extra reason to take part. Instead of only receiving fines or penalties for mistakes, drivers are being given a chance to improve their record by showing safer behaviour.

The UAE black points removal campaign also has a bigger goal. While Accident Free Day lasts for only one day, the hope is that the safer habits people follow on August 31 will continue long after the campaign ends.
So, remember the dates: registration opens on August 17, Accident Free Day is on August 31, and four black points will be removed automatically on September 25 for drivers who successfully meet the requirements.
