Istimara renewal !!!!!!
By jaffarsathick •
My car is registered in august 2008 and now i need to renew my instimara for 3rd time... is it necessary now to inspect my car..? where can i inspect it ? is it possible in matar qadeem area ? and what are the procedures to get my insurance and istimara get renewed ?
Jaffar, I purchased a 2008 July vehicle and went for the technical inspection two weeks ago. There are 2 phases; technical and legal -If you clear both, pay your insurance and go to muroor for renewal (both processes take under 15 minutes during off peaks)If you clear technical and fail legal for minor issues, you can just get them signed off at the police chamber if you can convince the police officer.Else, you would have to rectify any issues mentioned in the report and go back for inspection.Reinspection is free for 30 days.I was also quite confused earlier and I had posted this question about 3 weeks ago; so just a search might have got you the required answers.
i got 2nd hand car and was not quite aware of procedures... thats where iam n need of help... people say that if its 2008 then no inspection is required..is it so ?
Aug 08 means it will become 3 year and needs inspection. Easiest is to go to the Fahes site near Woqod storage depot on road to Ind area. Go Saturday afternoon= no Queues. Then take report to traffic dept at Madinat Khalifa (with insurance copy) for police to verify- drive into inspection bay. After that go get the new Istimara. I did it myself for the first time this year (usually pay someone) and even for a first timer with no Arabic it was quick, stress free and easy peasy.
I think the technical isnpection is required for automobiles over three years. If your car is registered in 2008 August your car is still less than 3 years.
you will renew your estimara for the third times and yet you are asking here what to do??????????
