Dubai Offroaders Membership Renewal '2018

[Ahmad Pervez]

As you are all aware Dubai Offroaders is officially recognized by Dubai Government, for Community Development and Volunteering for social causes.

The membership fees of US$100.00 per annum, per member, can now be paid directly online.

These membership fees are mandatory for all members holding one, two or more stars. The membership fee is valid for 12 calendar months and is applicable from 1st October '2018 to 30th September '2019.

New members, members not holding a star rating as well as any passengers are exempt from the membership fees.

As you all know, Dubai Offroaders is the one of the oldest, largest and most organized Offroad club in the U.A.E. more than 3000 members and close to 50 officials from all over the UAE, of all Nationalities.

Our main aim is the promotion of the Emirati Culture, promoting safe Adventure sports in addition to serving the interests of the Offroad Community, Care for the Environment, as well as bridging the gap between various communities and Nationalities living across the UAE and Oman.

Dubai Offroaders work in the Community has now been recognized by the Dubai Government and we had been granted a formal License from the Community Development Authority (CDA), last year.

We look forward to working in liaison with CDA to champion various community initiatives and strengthen local communities through various hands-on service, humanitarian and environmental projects.

This special activity license allows us to carry out the group’s core activities legally and also bestows certain special rights to the members when interacting with official bodies, where Dubai Offroaders will be coordinating with various Regulatory authorities and Commercial entities to bring special concessions and discounts for the accredited members.

This license is, however, like a company license with formal fees and charges being paid to the Community Development Authority. Dubai Offroaders, since its' inception in April '2007, has been run as a 100% free voluntary organization, with the contributions mainly coming from the Founder and other Club officials putting in their personal funds, efforts, and labor to contribute to Dubai Offroaders activities and growth.

As part of the regulatory requirement of CDA, all the members would be required to upload their Emirates ID Card online. A link will be e-mailed to all the verified members' so that the Emirates ID copy may be uploaded. Please update your blood group too, in the profile section.

Photo ID Cards with the relevant information will be issued to all the verified, paid members by the end of October '2018. Once issued, it will be mandatory for all members to carry and display this ID card on all DO drives.

This information, that will be accessible at all times on the drive, will not only help DO management to provide better, more structured services but would also be extremely pertinent in case of an emergency.

We are delighted to have you in the Dubai Offroaders family and look forward to your continued support and participation in the group activities.

Dear Ahmad,

I was about to pay the fee for next year but the payment option asks for 82 USD:

'' Confirm your membership with Dubai Offroaders by paying USD $82.00 (UAE Dirhams 300) ''
Will you adjust this???

Upload the other documents and then upload the Emirates ID once it is ready.

Hi Ahmed,
I paid the membership a couple of weeks ago in GBP from my UK account as PayPal wouldn’t accept payment from the UAE from me for some reason. The money has gone from my account. Please confirm receipt.
Hope to see you soon!

There is no option to pay in Dirhams? Only USD and other currencies?

It is the easiest way to pay, Paypal directly debits your debit/ credit card in equivalent Dirham amount, it is totally seamless from the user perspective.
