Question: As per the recent legal reforms adopted in the UAE, can you explain the new laws around the alcohol licensing system? Do I still need a licence to consume alcoholic drinks?
Answer: In 2020, Article 313 of the Federal Law No 3 of 1987 on the Issuance of the Penal Law of the UAE, was amended entirely by Federal Decree Law No 15 of 2020, and some leniency was introduced in terms of consumption, possession or trading in alcoholic drinks. The provisions of the said Article 313 (as amended) read as follows:
“Article (313) Bis
Following the aforesaid provisions, each Emirate in the UAE is empowered to frame its own regulations for consumption, possession and dealing with and trading in alcoholic beverages.
For instance, in Dubai, one would still require a licence to legally purchase alcoholic beverages from authorised outlets. Therefore, you may contact the competent authorities in your Emirate for further clarifications in this regard.
