In a significant move towards environmental preservation, Dubai recently implemented a ban on single-use plastic bags and products, effective from January 1, 2024. This groundbreaking decision, issued by Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of Dubai Executive Council, reflects a commitment to protect the natural environment, local biodiversity, and animal wealth.
The ban encompasses a wide range of single-use disposable products, both plastic and non-plastic, affecting sellers and consumers across Dubai, including private development zones and free zones such as the Dubai International Financial Centre. Penalties for violators range from a Dh200 fine to a doubled penalty not exceeding Dh2,000 for repeated offenses within a year.
Dubai’s initiative aims to foster sustainable practices, motivating individuals and businesses to adopt environmentally friendly behaviors. It also encourages the private sector to promote the use of recycled products, aligning with circular economy practices that facilitate sustainable recycling in local markets.
