DCAA signs MoUs to employ blockchain technology in Dubai’s aviation sector

The Dubai Civil Aviation Authority (DCAA) has signed two Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) with Dubai Aviation City Corporation (DACC) and the Dubai Integrated Economic Zones Authority (DIEZ).

Both MoUs were signed in the presence of H.H. Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of DCAA, Chairman of Dubai Airports and Chairman and Chief Executive of Emirates Airline and Group.

These MoUs aim to foster enhanced cooperation and integrated links using ‘Web Service’ technology for issuing commercial activity permits in the aviation sector. This will enable immediate approvals from DCAA for commercial licensing transactions in the Al Maktoum International Airport and Dubai Airport Freezone. It will also strengthen institutional information and data management cooperation, facilitating systematic integration.
