Revocation of Licenses and Deportation of Those Involved in Operating Unlicensed Buses

The Ministry of Interior has warned against the use of buses for transportation or rental activities outside the scope of licenses granted to companies, emphasizing that legal action will be taken against violators, including the revocation of company licenses and the deportation of any individual proven to be involved in operating buses in violation of the law or facilitating such activities.

The Ministry noted that it has recently observed some companies and business license holders exploiting certain company-owned buses for unlicensed activities, such as transporting passengers and workers for monetary compensation, as well as renting out some buses to third parties for purposes not covered by the issued licenses.

The Ministry urged individuals and companies, when renting buses, to deal only with licensed rental companies and to verify, when requesting transportation services for workers or school students, that both the transport company and the bus are licensed for such types of transport.

The Ministry of Interior stressed that the license of any company found renting out buses or transporting passengers outside the scope of its license will be revoked, and anyone proven to be involved in operating such buses in violation of the law or facilitating such activities will be deported, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
