Contractors Classifications

UAE Contractors Classification Services are specialized services that help construction contractors obtain an official classification rating from relevant UAE government authorities, such as the Department of Municipalities and Transport (DMT) in Abu Dhabi and other emirates’ municipal authorities.

Contractor classification is essential for firms to participate in certain public and private sector projects, as it establishes the contractor’s capabilities, financial stability, and technical expertise.

Professional contractor classification services ensure that contractors meet all criteria and submit the required documentation to secure the appropriate classification grade.
