❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How does school-transport driving in Sharjah differ from private family driving?
School-transport driving requires an additional Sharjah Transport Authority (STA) school-bus permit if you drive a licensed school bus, and drivers must undergo an approved child-safety awareness course. Private school-run drivers using the family car do not need the STA permit but must adhere strictly to pickup/drop timings and always have a female attendant onboard for young children.
Q. Is a Sharjah-registered LTV licence different from a Dubai LTV licence?
No – there is one federal UAE driving licence issued by the RTA of the Emirate where you reside. A licence issued in Sharjah is valid nationwide, and vice versa. Employers usually reimburse the licence conversion fee (typically AED 900–1,200 including tests) after joining.
Q. What is the typical working week for a Sharjah family driver?
A standard Sharjah private-driver week is 48 hours across 6 days, with Friday off, following UAE Labour Law. Split shifts are common – morning school run, mid-day rest, evening errands and airport pickups. Overtime is paid at 25% premium (50% on Friday / public holidays).
