International City has more than typing shops. GDRFA lists 2 Amer centers in International City and Warsan, Dawn Government Tansaction Center and Fast Track Vision Government Transactions, and MOHRE lists one Tasheel center, M2000 Businessmen Services in Warsan 1, plus Ozone International, a Tadbeer center at Dragon Mart. Around them our directory has 79 private shops, 58 typing offices and 21 clearing offices, 44 of which list hours to 22:00 or later.
The four licensed counters
| Center | Licence | Address as published |
|---|---|---|
| Dawn Government Tansaction Center | Amer (GDRFA) | International City |
| Fast Track Vision Government Transactions | Amer (GDRFA) | Warsan First |
| M2000 Businessmen Services | Tasheel (MOHRE) | Warsan 1, Farisi Cluster |
| Ozone International Domestic Workers Services | Tadbeer (MOHRE) | Dragon Mart |
Spellings as GDRFA and MOHRE publish them, checked . None of the four has published hours.
The Tasheel center in International City on MOHRE's list is M2000. It is part of a group with five Tasheel points in Dubai, another in Jebel Ali Industrial Area 1. Our Tasheel guide covers what it handles: work permits, labour contracts and company files.
Finding a shop by cluster
Private shop addresses here rarely name a street. They give a cluster and a building code. In our list, England Cluster has 19 shops, France 13, Russia 11, Persia 7, Morocco 6, Greece and China 5 each, and Spain 3. A few more are in International City Phase 2 or Warsan 4. Search the shop name together with its code, for example "Persia M-05", in Google Maps. 74 of the 79 are on a ground floor.
The private rows come from HiDubai, the Dubai Economy and Tourism directory, plus one from Yellow Pages UAE. Neither shows an update date, so some listings may be out of date.
Late hours in the clusters
International City runs late. 44 shops list 22:00 or later, and Atlantic Internet Services and Typing at V-13 lists midnight, every day. Shams Alwarqaa Documents Clearing at Persia M-05 lists 09:30 to 22:30 daily, and Madar Typing Center, which has two branches here, lists 08:30 to 22:00 every day at its Phase 2 shop. 22 shops show Sunday hours.
What the shops can do
A cluster shop can type and print, fill in Emirates ID and medical forms, and in some cases run a file for you as a clearing office. It cannot submit a Dubai visa or a MOHRE work permit itself. Those go to Dawn or Fast Track Vision for visas and to M2000 for labour work. Our typing center services page sets out the difference, and the medical test guide covers the medical fitness test that most residence visas need.

What the counters charge
In International City, as elsewhere in Dubai, the counter's own charge sits on top of the government fee: about AED 100 to 300 per transaction at an Amer center and AED 40 to 200 per form at a typing shop, going by published price lists checked . MOHRE caps a Tasheel center's commission at AED 72 per service.
