National Artisan Registry

Help centre

Explore crafts, artisans and businesses without signing in. To use a workspace, sign in with UAE PASS, choose your user type and emirate, and upload a profile photo. Your saved profile and applications appear in your workspace; public profiles require approval.
How do I register?

Sign in with UAE PASS, choose Artisan, Buyer or Business, select your emirate and add a profile photo. SOP1 visitors are eligible; optional missing identity details do not prevent registration.

When does my profile become public?

Artisan and Business profiles become public after approval. Editing a public profile requires another review. Buyer profiles stay private.

How do I manage photos?

Choose images in the upload area and complete the upload before saving. Click a preview to enlarge it. Delete new uploads immediately, or select Delete on save for saved images. Business profiles can have up to three cover images.

How do I join a workshop?

Open a published, upcoming programme and enrol from your Artisan workspace. Your saved enrolments appear in My Enrolments, where you can cancel them.

How do I download my card or Seal?

After a Seal is approved and while it remains valid, download Seal artwork from My Seal. Artisans can also download their membership card from Digital artisan ID, or use Print / Save as PDF.

Where can I see review decisions?

Open Notifications in your workspace, or view the profile or application directly. Review notes stay private to your account.

Does the Ministry handle purchases?

The platform connects and promotes. Contracts and commercial arrangements are agreed directly between the parties.
