Alcohol is licensed, not lawless
Hotel bars and licensed restaurants. Not the pavement. Driving after a drink is treated as serious.
You buy and drink in licensed venues. Some supermarket permits exist for residents. Public drunkenness and drinking in a park are how nights become police files.
The driving standard is effectively zero. Careem home. That is not a slogan; it is the fine and the visa risk. Ramadan hours change venue service — check before you book a client dinner.
Practical notes, not official law. Confirm on ICP, MOHRE, RTA, KHDA and your employer before you act.
