Dubai South, the largest single-urban master development focusing on aviation, logistics, and real estate, has collaborated with dnata, one of the world’s largest air services providers offering ground handling, cargo, and travel.

The collaboration seeks to enable a digitally driven Gate Control mechanism for shipments at the cargo handling terminals at Dubai South’s premises, which will be completed in less than a minute. This will benefit companies based at the Logistics District freezone and mainland, as well as movers who transport goods to other ports.

The collaboration involves the integration of Masary, an e-gate pass system by Dubai South, with dnata’s Appointment & Dock Management, a system used by dnata’s clients to apply for appointments to access the free zone for the loading and offloading of shipments. This will ensure a seamless, paperless experience for customers entering and exiting Dubai South Gate under dnata’s designated appointment system for goods movement, as well as enable faster procedures for customers at the gates.
