Up to Rs 1 Lakh fine for breaching outdoor seating rules in Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi has announced the imposition of a fine of up to Dirhams 5,000 (Rs 1,13,312) on venues that violate the outdoor seating regulations.This comes as the Abu Dhabi City Municipality, in partnership with the City Municipality Centre, has launched a campaign to inform the public about the established criteria, guidelines and



operational procedures related to outdoor seating.

Commercial establishments in Abu Dhabi, including shops, eateries, cafes and other service premises, are being advised of the regulations to be followed when setting up outdoor seating areas as the weather in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) turns cooler.
