Dubai's RTA (Road and Transportation Authority) is a government agency that provides a variety of services, such as rail services, vehicle licensing, bus services, commercial vehicle licensing, driving licenses, and Salik accounts. Now, they have launched an RTA Complaint Handling Portal to make sure the services continue to be effective and convenient to use. By collecting customer feedback and suggestions, the RTA can use this service to enhance its operations. We introduce the steps to file an RTA complaint against the provided services.
