Revolutionizing Bail Procedures
Ajman Police has officially launched its new Smart Bail Service, marking a significant advancement in digitalizing public services within the United Arab Emirates. This fully online system is engineered to simplify the bail process, dramatically reducing the time required from an average of 71 minutes to just 16 minutes.
The initiative is a core component of Ajman Police's broader strategy to embrace next-generation service concepts, replacing traditional, time-consuming procedures with a more efficient digital alternative.
Key Enhancements and Benefits
The introduction of the Smart Bail Service has streamlined the process by cutting the number of procedural steps from eight to four. This reduction is expected to significantly enhance user experience and operational efficiency. Colonel Ghaith Khalifa Al Kaabi, Head of the Comprehensive City Police Centre at Ajman Police, stated that the service was developed based on public feedback to ensure a 'seamless and user-friendly experience'.
The benefits of this digital transformation are already evident:
- The service has benefited 4,659 users since its implementation.
- It has resulted in a saving of more than 3,250 working hours.
- Customer satisfaction has seen a notable increase, rising from 85 percent to 97 percent in 2025.
Colonel Al Kaabi emphasized, 'The Smart Bail Service embodies our commitment to innovation and service excellence. It saves time and effort for customers while supporting the Ajman Government's vision for smart transformation.'
Alignment with National Digital Strategy
The Smart Bail Service is part of Ajman Police's ongoing efforts to transform policing into a proactive, customer-centric model. This aligns directly with the UAE's broader digital government strategy, which prioritizes efficient, technology-driven public services. Colonel Al Kaabi reiterated Ajman Police's dedication to 'sustaining and expanding smart services to enhance quality of life, meet community needs, and align with the UAE's broader digital government strategy.'
The move underscores the commitment of Ajman Police to setting new benchmarks in innovation and ensuring the sustainability of its services for the community.

What about those without internet or tech access? This ignores them.

It's great to see efficiency gains, but we must ensure the core principles of justice are still upheld, not just sped up. Speed isn't everything.
