What is a Shisha Cafe License in Dubai?

In Dubai, a Shisha Cafe License is the mandatory permit businesses must obtain to serve shisha. To get the license, businesses need to comply with the Dubai Municipality, health and safety, and shisha serving standards, as well as the rules and regulations of the specific locality.

This license is meant to verify Dubai’s legal requirements for the layout and standards of smoke extraction, the setup of sitting areas, and the operational standards of the cafe prior to the commencement of business.
