GPS tracking is mandatory for commercial vehicles in UAE under five compliance programmes: ITC Asateel (Abu Dhabi commercial vehicles), RTA SecurePath (Dubai rental cars, taxis, school buses), ADNOC IVMS (oil and gas contractor vehicles), SIRA (Dubai security patrol vehicles), and OPAL (Oman cross-border operations). Each programme specifies certified hardware from an approved device list, continuous data submission to a government portal, and a specific data format. Non-compliance results in financial penalties and, for ADNOC and SIRA, site access suspension.
