SmartGate is only for Terminal 3 at the moment.
Egate is now AED 325 and only payable in cash (2 years).
By the way, are you doing it as you've changed your name? As there's no need unless it is up for renewal anyway. You'll need your passport, finger and your Emirates ID.
If you are going to DNATA, Egate is only open from 9am. There is also an Egate desk in Immigration near Trade Centre roundabout.
As far as I can make out, the e-gate, although still in use, is made obsolete by the new "smart" gates. All you need to do to at the arrivals smart gate, is scan your passport and eyes. Takes less than a minute and there are no queues. It isn't working yet at departures, but all the gates are in place.
Hello Ladies,
Can you advise me on the process for my E-Gate card renewal please? Will I be able to do it at Terminal 3 at 1am on Tuesday when my next flight is do you think? Any idea of costs & what is involved? I have married since & so my name has changed - already done in my passport & Emirates ID, this is the next one..
TIA
