Abu Dhabi Maritime, the authority overseeing the emirate’s waterways, has emphasized the importance of securing a no-objection certificate before engaging in any maritime activities within its waters. These permits are crucial for ensuring safety, coordinating operations, and protecting the environment during events, projects, and infrastructure work.
Applications for the no-objection certificate can be submitted conveniently through the official website. It is essential to obtain this certificate when planning various maritime activities, which encompass a wide range of events, including water sports, races, fireworks, drone displays, diving operations, and marine surveys.
Additionally, maritime projects such as debris removal, ship waste cleanup, and the installation or removal of navigational aids require this certification. The scope of marine infrastructure work includes the construction, modification, or maintenance of piers, marinas, boat docks, and other marine structures, as well as activities related to marine pipelines and dredging.
Furthermore, marine companies must adhere to regulations regarding the issuance, modification, or cancellation of maritime activities linked to their commercial licenses. Any changes to licensed marine sports vessels also necessitate prior approval to ensure compliance with established guidelines.
