as you will have to transfer ownership of the car and ensure it is properly insured and tested. Ownership is transferred through a vehicle licensing centre or the Traffic Police Headquarters. When transferring ownership in Dubai, bring along your original passport and a copy, your UAE driving licence, a copy of your residence visa, the car's registration card, the original insurance document, the licence plates and the relevant fees. The person selling the car to you must go with you to sign the documents to allow the transfer of ownership and they must bring along a passport copy and a copy of their residence permit.
Fees
At this stage the vehicle's records will be checked to ensure the person selling the car is the legitimate owner and there are no outstanding fines. If the car is already insured under the previous owner, this insurance can be transferred to the purchaser. Alternatively, if the vehicle is being bought from a dealer, you must take the sale deed letter with you. Once all the relevant documents have been submitted, you have to pay the ownership transfer fee (Dh320) plus additional fees and soon afterwards the new vehicle registration document, which is credit card sized, will be issued. For more details contact the Vehicle Licensing Department at the Road Traffic Authority on 04-217-2221 or 04-217-2229. Alternatively, contact Tasjeel in Al Aweer on 04-333-1510. Vehicles over two years old must be tested (Dh50) annually at an Eppco Tasjeel Centre, an Emarat Shamil Centre or another accredited outlet. Don't forget to bring along the registration card.

Hi, drsb, This is the process i followed, it may vary slightly in Dubai but not much unless they changed the rules since last week, which is very possible in this country. You can pay the owner anytime you like.
You will need the following documentation, 1. Three copies of your passport and visa, also the original. 2. Three CLEAR copies of your drivers license and the original. 3. A completed ownership transfer form that you will get from the Dubai Traffic Police (this form should be filled in by the owner). 4. Proof that the fines have been paid from Dubai Traffic Police. 5. Copy of the owners registration papers that show the car is not owned by the bank. Then, at the DTP get an export permission form, pay the fees and transport the car to the Abu Dhabi Traffic Police, then roadworthy the car at the Abu Dhabi Traffic Police, then get insurance for the car in YOUR name. Then register the car at the Abu Dhabi Traffic police in your name. You will need all the papers listed and about 500Dhs to cover all the costs. Good Luck. Having gone through this process I thought I'd better let you know of the one major change that differed from all of the posts / blogs i'd seen. When you go to the RTA in dubai to essentially "unregister" the car, they take the plates off. They used to issued blue export plates. However they NO LONGER do this. Instead, you have to pay someone to transport the car for you to the registration centre in Muroor Road, or the second ADNOC on the way to Abu Dhabi. They also have a registration/testing centre. The cost of transporting your car will be 400 AED (I got him down to 350)
