Overview
TAMM (tamm.abudhabi) is Abu Dhabi's unified government services platform run by the Department of Government Enablement (DGE). The Arabic word 'tamm' means 'consider it done', and the platform aggregates more than 1,000 services from federal authorities operating in Abu Dhabi (ICP, MOHRE), Abu Dhabi government entities (Department of Health, Department of Education, Department of Municipalities and Transport, Department of Economic Development), and connected private-sector partners. As of 2026, TAMM serves over 2.5 million users and processes more than 10 million transactions a year.
The platform has three faces. The web portal tamm.abudhabi is the comprehensive surface; the TAMM mobile app, available on iOS and Android, surfaces the most-used services for daily use; and TAMM service centres across the emirate handle the small fraction of transactions that still benefit from in-person presence. Login is through UAE Pass, which immediately ties the user to ICP, MOHRE, ADDC, the Abu Dhabi traffic file (Mawaqif and traffic fines), the Tawtheeq tenancy registry, the Department of Health and any business licences held under the Emirates ID.
Three differentiators matter. First, the TAMM AI Assistant launched in 2024 in partnership with Microsoft has become the recommended way to navigate the catalog; it accepts natural-language questions in Arabic or English and walks the user through the right service. Second, the Payment Hub consolidates ADNOC, Etisalat, du, TAQA, Mawaqif parking, and traffic fines into a single monthly settlement, which is a workflow many Abu Dhabi residents now run on TAMM rather than the individual provider apps. Third, TAMM Spaces are curated journeys (housing, business, healthcare) that bundle every relevant service into a single navigation context, designed for major life events like getting married, starting a business, or buying a home. Confirm any specific service on the live catalog before assuming a flow.
For Abu Dhabi residents TAMM is the consolidated services platform: 1,000+ services from the Department of Government Enablement covering residence (via ICP integration), health (Dhamani via Daman), education, business (DED Abu Dhabi), Tawtheeq tenancy registration, traffic, social benefits, and many more. Sign-on via UAE Pass. Country context at our UAE country guide.
What changed and matters operationally in 2026: TAMM is the dominant interface for Abu Dhabi government services with steady integration of new flows; the platform now hosts Tawtheeq registration end-to-end (landlord initiates, tenant verifies via UAE Pass); DED Abu Dhabi business setup runs through TAMM with consolidated dashboard for trade licence, lease, and labour-file status; the cross-service notification stream surfaces upcoming renewals across residence, vehicle registration, business licence, and Tawtheeq. The platform is the practical front door for residents who want to avoid managing multiple ministry apps.

How to access TAMM
- 1
Install TAMM and log in with UAE Pass
Download TAMM from the App Store or Google Play (publisher: Abu Dhabi Government). Choose Login with UAE Pass and complete the face-scan. The app immediately pulls your ICP, MOHRE, Tawtheeq, vehicle, traffic and Department of Health links.
- 2
Set up your TAMM Profile
Confirm your Emirates ID details, primary mobile, email, and Abu Dhabi address. TAMM uses this to personalise the home screen and to alert you when a document is about to expire.
- 3
Use the AI Assistant for service discovery
Open the AI Assistant from the home screen and type or speak your need (e.g., 'how do I renew my Mulkiya', 'I want to sponsor my wife', 'open a sole establishment'). The assistant returns the exact service link with the right next step.
- 4
Configure the Payment Hub
Open Payment Hub, link ADNOC, Etisalat, du, TAQA and Mawaqif accounts, and save a credit or debit card. Subsequent settlements take one biometric confirmation per cycle.

Explore TAMM Spaces for life events
TAMM Spaces for Housing, Business and Healthcare are curated bundles. The Housing Space, for example, walks through Tawtheeq, ADDC, school enrolment and family residence visa as a single sequence.
Troubleshooting
The errors residents hit most often on TAMM, and the fix that works.
Landlord may have registered against a wrong EID. Confirm the EID used and ask for re-registration.
Integration temporarily unavailable. Use ministry's own portal as fallback.
SIM lapse fix - reactivate at Etisalat/du or eSIM.
Check sub-layer: lease (Tawtheeq) valid, employee labour file current, no outstanding municipal fee.
Daman policy may not be synced. Open Daman app to refresh, then return to TAMM.
24h sync delay. Wait, log out and back in.
Update registered mobile/email on UAE Pass and re-enable notifications in TAMM Settings.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. The platform itself is free. Only the underlying government fees and service charges apply. There are no TAMM convenience fees for any of the standard transactions, and the Payment Hub does not add a markup beyond the actual bill amounts and any payment gateway charges.
Yes for Abu Dhabi-specific services tied to your work or vehicle, but residency-specific actions follow the file. A Dubai-issued residence visa stays with GDRFA Dubai and is managed through DubaiNow or Amer. Abu Dhabi-issued visas are managed through TAMM and ICP.
It is a natural-language guide built in partnership with Microsoft and integrated into TAMM. Ask any question about Abu Dhabi services in Arabic or English and it returns the exact service link with the next action. It also walks first-time users through long flows like business setup.
Yes. Companies registered with the Department of Economic Development have a business profile inside TAMM, used for licence renewal, employee-related transactions, ADDC business connections, and Mawaqif fleet management.
Yes. The Department of Health integration surfaces SEHA appointment booking, vaccination records, DOH-licensed health insurance status, and the Malaffi unified health record summary. Specialist appointments are typically still booked inside SEHA's own app, but TAMM is the discovery surface.
Link your ADNOC, Etisalat, du, TAQA, Mawaqif, and traffic-fines accounts to the Payment Hub, save a card, and the hub presents all due bills on one screen. One biometric confirmation settles the lot. The receipts are stored in the hub for later download or VAT recovery.
TAMM is the entry point, but the visa file sits with ICP. The flow inside TAMM hands off to ICP, the medical fitness and biometrics steps still need to happen in person, and the visa stamp comes back through ICP into TAMM's wallet. So most of the flow is in TAMM, but not all.
TAMM is the platform; Tawtheeq is one of the services that lives inside it. Tawtheeq is the tenancy contract registration system, accessed through TAMM. Other Abu Dhabi services like Mawaqif and Tasareeh also live inside TAMM as separate service flows.
TAMM is Abu Dhabi's emirate-level super-app run by the Department of Government Enablement; ICP is the federal authority for residence and Emirates ID across non-Dubai emirates; Dubai Now is Dubai-only. For an Abu Dhabi resident the typical pattern in 2026: TAMM for Abu Dhabi-specific services (Tawtheeq, DED Abu Dhabi trade licence, ADDC, Abu Dhabi schools, Dhamani health insurance, social benefits); ICP for residence visa renewal, Emirates ID, Golden Visa applications; UAE Pass for sign-on across both. TAMM has steadily absorbed more flows and the consolidated dashboard makes it the practical front door for daily Abu Dhabi life; ICP is reached more for once-or-twice-a-year visa-side actions. The cross-service notification stream on TAMM is materially better than running each ministry app separately.
Open TAMM > Search 'Tawtheeq' > My Tenancies. The list shows every Tawtheeq registered to your Emirates ID, with the Tawtheeq number, lease period, landlord/property manager, and status (Active, Closed, Pending). The PDF certificate is downloadable. If the list is empty after your landlord said they registered, the registration may have been done against a wrong Emirates ID variant; the fix is to ask the landlord to verify the EID number used. For new tenants the landlord must initiate Tawtheeq before ADDC will connect electricity - this is the most common reason a new tenant sees a delay between moving in and getting utilities, and the fix is to chase the landlord to file Tawtheeq.
