Bur Dubai Police Station
Bur Dubai Police Station receives reports of incidents and assists residents and tourists in this part of the city.
More
The station serves one of the oldest and most densely populated areas on the southern bank of Dubai Creek, popular with tourists thanks to the historic Al Fahidi quarter, the textile markets and the abra crossings. You can come here to file a report of theft, lost documents, a domestic dispute or another incident; reports are accepted around the clock. The station also helps with obtaining certificates and resolving matters that require personal presence.
Before visiting, it is worth checking whether the matter can be resolved remotely: the Dubai Police app and the dubaipolice.gov.ae website let you register a minor road accident, report online fraud (eCrime) and order a good-conduct certificate. A minor accident with no injuries is conveniently handled through the app or at one of the many petrol stations under the On-the-Go programme. The emergency number is 999; for non-urgent matters call the 901 call centre. A special Dubai Police support service is available to tourists.
Working hours and services may change — check the official website or call the institution.
