About Tier Mobility UAE
Tier is a European shared micromobility company founded in Berlin in 2018. It became one of the largest e-scooter operators in Europe and expanded to the Middle East, including Dubai, where it was licensed by the Roads and Transport Authority.
In 2024, Tier merged with Dott, another European micromobility operator, creating a combined company that operates under the Dott brand in many markets.
Shared e-scooters allow users to rent a scooter through an app for short trips, paying for the time used. In Dubai, they are allowed in designated zones with dedicated lanes and parking areas.
Operators are responsible for maintaining fleets, charging batteries, redistributing scooters and keeping them safely parked, often using staff and vans to collect and recharge vehicles.
The RTA sets strict rules for riders and operators, including speed limits, permitted areas and safety requirements.
Micromobility supports Dubai's plans to reduce car use for short journeys and to connect residents with metro and tram stations.
Tier is a European company rather than a UAE startup, and Startups UAE lists its Dubai operation among the city's micromobility services.
