Dubai Municipality (DM) has published additional guidance for businesses on the single
use plastics ban that was issued in January following a resolution by Sheikh Hamdan
Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of
Dubai’s Executive Council.

The resolution was introduced to protect the environment by minimising plastic waste
through changing consumer habits and fostering a culture of recycling among
businesses and the community.

Dubai Municipality published an awareness guide for the initiative under its
#DubaiMoreSustainable campaign, which was launched at COP28. The guide has now
been expanded with more information and an FAQ to help people and businesses
adhere to the new rules.
