Exploring the New Salik Trip Feature in Dubai RTA App

Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has introduced a valuable new feature in their mobile app that allows Salik users to view detailed Salik trip information. This enhancement gives drivers better visibility into their toll gate usage and helps with expense tracking.

What's New in the RTA App?

The latest update to the Dubai RTA app includes several Salik related improvements under the "Salik" section:

1. Trip History Tracking: Users can now view their complete Salik trip history

2. Monthly Statements: Organized by month for easy reference

3. Pending Trips: See recently recorded trips that haven't yet appeared in statements

How to Access Your Salik Trip Details

Open the Dubai RTA app and Click on “More”

Select "Salik" from the options

Choose "Trips" from menu

Now you can see Last 24 Hour "Salik Trip" Details

By clicking the "Statement" section, you can view the monthly report and download it.

The interface shows trips sorted chronologically, with the most recent months first (March 2025 at the top in the current display). Users can scroll through previous months to review older trips.

Why This Feature Matters

This new functionality provides several benefits:

• Better budget management: Track your toll expenses over time

• Trip verification: Confirm your vehicle's Salik tag was properly registered at each gate

• Expense reporting: Easily compile toll costs for business or personal accounting

• Usage patterns: Identify your most frequent routes and times

Other Salik Features Worth Noting

While exploring the trip details, don't miss these other useful Salik functions in the app:

• Account balance checking

• Instant account recharge (for yourself or others)

• Transaction history

• Tag activation

• Violation checking

The RTA continues to enhance its digital services, making it easier for Dubai residents and visitors to manage their transportation needs. This trip history feature is particularly valuable for frequent drivers, fleet managers, and anyone who wants better visibility into their toll expenses.

Important Note for Rental Vehicle Users

Clarification on Salik Trip Access:
While the RTA app's new trip feature is valuable for personal vehicle owners, car rental customers in Dubai should note that only the registered owner (the rental company) can access Salik trip data for rented vehicles.

How Toll Charges Work with Rentals:

Real-Time Tracking: Rental companies monitor Salik usage through company Dubai salik account

Post-Rental Billing: Toll charges typically appear on your final invoice, often with:

• Actual Salik toll amounts

• Potential administrative fees (varies by company)

No Direct Access: Unlike personal vehicles, renters cannot view trip histories for rented cars through the RTA app

What Renters CAN Do:

• Request a toll charge breakdown from your rental provider

• Check if your rental agreement includes Salik packages or daily toll caps

• Verify that all toll charges correspond to your actual usage period

This distinction is crucial while the Dubai RTA's new feature improves transparency for personal vehicle owners, rental companies remain the sole administrators of trip data for their fleets. Always review your rental agreement's toll policy to avoid surprises.
