It’s now even easier to use the national identity programme UAE Pass, thanks to its new facial recognition software.
Here’s the latest on how to register for UAE Pass, the app that makes using government services in Abu Dhabi even easier.
The face verification registration method means that you no longer need to remember lists of pesky passwords to use services across the UAE.
UAE Pass enables UAE residents to access different services across many sectors with password-less sign in.

Don’t have the UAE Pass? Here’s how to get access:
When you download the UAE Pass app, available on Google Play and the App Store, for the first time, make sure you have your Emirates ID to hand.

3.The final step is the very fancy encrypted 3D face scan. Just hold your phone close to your face and follow the instructions.
4.For added security, you will need to create a password to be able to sign documents.
