human inrest2 weeks ago

Dubai, one of the world’s fastest-growing cities, is again setting a global example by transforming public safety services. The city’s innovative Dubai Police 24/7 Stations are changing how residents and visitors access police assistance, anytime and anywhere, without needing to step into a traditional police office.

These stations, called Smart Police Stations (SPS), are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, offering over 40 police services in multiple languages. From filing reports to requesting certificates or even paying fines, everything can be done quickly through touchscreens without the need to meet a police officer in person.

What Are Dubai’s 24/7 Smart Police Stations?

The concept of Smart Police Stations is a part of Dubai’s vision to become the world’s smartest and safest city. First launched in 2017, these unmanned stations are designed to provide the public with police services around the clock, even during public holidays.

The 24/7 stations are fully automated and do not require any human staff. Using simple, easy-to-follow screens, users can access a variety of services — making the process faster, easier, and hassle-free.

Some of the most popular services available at these stations include:

Reporting crimes or lost items
Requesting police clearance certificates
Payment of traffic fines
Community services such as social support reports
General inquiries and guidance

These services are accessible in multiple languages, including Arabic, English, French, Russian, Spanish, and Chinese — ensuring that both locals and international tourists can use the stations easily.

Dubai’s Smart Police Stations are located strategically across the city to ensure easy access for everyone. Popular locations include:

City Walk
La Mer Beach
Dubai Marina

These locations were chosen to be close to busy residential, commercial, and tourist areas so that help is always nearby.

Dubai Police plan to open even more smart stations in the future, covering more parts of the city, including new neighborhoods and shopping centers.
