Emirates ID Guidelines
When logging in, you may be prompted to scan your valid Emirates ID. Alternatively, log in and go to Settings > Update your details > Emirates ID.
If you only have a digital Emirates ID uploaded in ICA, simply scan a printed picture of your Emirates ID card.
Note: Screenshots of Emirates ID cannot be uploaded in the app.
If your Emirates ID is under process, please wait till you get either a digital ID or physical card and upload it in the app by scanning the ID card.
