2/20/24, 11:37 AM              Dubai Municipality to review integrated digital programs and services at Gulfood 2024 - CIO News
        Dubai Municipality will further review its services for food merchants and suppliers, which offer them

        access to the IRS to streamline import and export procedures and track food products. In addition, the

        municipality will also promote practices that minimize food loss and waste in the Emirate during its
        participation at the event, in addition to increasing customer understanding of the regulations,

        processes, and transactions associated with food shipments.




        The customer’s journey with the IRS entails several steps, including securing a license, registering the

        company on the municipality’s website, evaluating food products, submitting an import application on

        the import and export system, requesting the arrival of the shipment at the port of entry, and

        transporting it to the port control office for inspection and release.



        Furthermore, it includes staff members’ receipt and inspection of the shipment, the release of the

        shipment from the port, its arrival at the importer’s warehouse, the collection of samples, the laboratory

        inspection of the product, and ultimately the product’s access to the local market.



        Dubai Municipality is committed to developing programs and launching initiatives to strengthen

        Dubai’s food sector and achieve self-sufficiency and food security. The municipality constantly

        monitors the food sector to guarantee that the Emirate has access to the best materials and products of

        high food safety and quality.
