The Methaq insurance garage list is the network of workshops authorised to repair your vehicle and bill Methaq Takaful Insurance Company directly, so you do not pay for approved repairs out of pocket. Fifty workshops are approved across seven emirates. Methaq does not publish that network itself — it is confirmed to you, claim by claim, by the Methaq claims team.
That gap between “the network exists” and “the insurer publishes it” explains most of the confusion. Drivers holding Methaq car insurance go looking for a downloadable directory, find nothing on the insurer’s website, and assume there is no network. There is — it is simply managed the way most UAE insurers manage repair panels, and the same structure applies right across car insurance in Dubai and the other emirates.
This guide lists all 50 approved workshops by emirate, with the area, phone number and email for each, then explains how to get one authorised before you hand over your keys and what cashless repair does and does not pay for. Contact details reflect Methaq’s approved-workshop network as at August 2026.

Does Methaq publish an official garage list or PDF?
No. Methaq Takaful Insurance Company does not publish an official garage list or a downloadable PDF, and searching for a “Methaq Takaful Insurance Company garage list PDF” will not return an insurer-issued document. Any PDF circulating online is compiled by a third party and is not maintained by Methaq.
The reason is structural rather than evasive. Which of the 50 workshops you may use is decided per claim, against four variables:
- Your policy type — comprehensive or third party.
- Your repair cover — agency repair or non-agency repair.
- The emirate where the claim is registered.
- The current state of Methaq’s service-provider panel, which is renegotiated periodically.
Because all four can change, a static list would be wrong within months. Use the tables below to see where Methaq repair capacity actually sits and to call a workshop directly — then confirm your specific choice with Methaq’s claims team on 600 565 695 before any work begins. That confirmation call is the only authoritative version of the list.
Methaq approved garages in the UAE: how the network is distributed
Twenty-eight of the 50 approved workshops — 56% of the entire network — sit in the emirate of Abu Dhabi. That single fact shapes how a Methaq claim is handled, and it is the opposite of what most drivers expect from a UAE insurer.
| Emirate | Approved workshops | Share of network | Main repair district |
| Abu Dhabi (city) | 21 | 42% | Musaffah Industrial |
| Dubai | 10 | 20% | Al Qusais, Umm Ramool |
| Al Ain | 7 | 14% | Sanaiya (Al Ain Industrial) |
| Sharjah | 4 | 8% | Industrial areas 2 and 5 |
| Ras Al Khaimah | 4 | 8% | Al Dhait, Sheikh Khalifa City |
| Ajman | 2 | 4% | Al Jerf Industrial |
| Fujairah | 2 | 4% | Al Hayl Industrial |
| Umm Al Quwain | 0 | 0% | Served from Sharjah or Ajman |
Two practical consequences follow. If you drive in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain or Dubai, you have real choice and can ask for a workshop near you by name. If you drive in Ajman, Fujairah or Umm Al Quwain, capacity is thin — ask at the point of registering the claim which workshop you are being sent to and how far it is, rather than finding out on the day.
Every workshop below is listed with the phone number and email Methaq holds for it. Call ahead to check capacity, but treat none of it as authorisation in itself — only Methaq can authorise the repair.
Methaq garages in Abu Dhabi and Musaffah
Abu Dhabi city holds 21 approved workshops, and almost every one is in Musaffah. Methaq Takaful Insurance Company’s Musaffah cluster is the largest single concentration of repair capacity in the network — if you are searching for Methaq insurance in Musaffah, this is the district that comes back, and it is the right one. Dynatrade is the exception, covering Mafraq Industrial Area.

Musaffah’s scale matters beyond choice: workshops there deal with insurers daily, so estimate submission and approval tend to move faster than at a general side-street garage. Abu Dhabi drivers weighing up cover before a renewal should compare car insurance in Abu Dhabi across insurers first, because repair network depth varies enormously between them — and on this measure Methaq is unusually strong in Abu Dhabi.
Methaq garages in Al Ain
Al Ain has seven approved workshops, concentrated in Sanaiya, the city’s industrial repair zone. Because Al Ain sits inside the emirate of Abu Dhabi, Methaq’s own records group most of these under Abu Dhabi and its claims are administered through Abu Dhabi — but the workshops themselves are in Al Ain, and Methaq’s Al Ain branch on Khalifa Street can register a claim in person if you would rather not do it by phone.

| Garage Hili 2000 | Al Hili, Al Ain | +971 55 806 0950 | — |
Between Al Ain and Abu Dhabi city, 28 workshops sit in one emirate. Al Ain drivers comparing cover at renewal can review car insurance in Al Ain alongside the network depth shown here, which is stronger than most insurers offer this far from the coast.
Methaq insurance garages in Dubai
Dubai has ten approved workshops, clustered in Al Qusais Industrial and Umm Ramool — both long-established repair hubs with the panel-beating, spray and mechanical capacity accident work needs. Only K M P Auto Repairing sits outside those two districts, out at Al Khawaneej.

| Al Shalal Garage | Umm Ramool, Al Rashidiya | +971 50 494 5790 | — |
Dubai carries 20% of the network against a far larger share of the UAE’s registered vehicles, so approval here can take an extra call at busy periods. If you are comparing insurers before you renew, the approved garage networks of other UAE insurers follow the same industrial-district pattern, and several are deeper in Dubai than Methaq is.
Methaq insurance garages in Sharjah
Sharjah has four approved workshops, spread across the emirate’s industrial areas. That is a workable panel for everyday accident repair, though smaller than what Sharjah’s vehicle population would suggest.
| Workshop | Area | Phone | |
| Al Raya Al Bayda Auto | 16 Street, Industrial Area 5 | +971 56 991 1334 | [email protected] |
| Al Tharaa Auto Workshop | Building 6, 84 Street | +971 50 977 0100 | [email protected] |
| Al Murasil Auto Maintenance | Industrial Area 2 | +971 6 543 1326 | — |
| Al Welayah Auto Repair | First Industrial Street | +971 50 646 5350 | — |
Network depth is a legitimate reason to choose one insurer over another, not just a claims inconvenience. Sharjah drivers renewing soon can weigh it when they compare car insurance in Sharjah, alongside price and cover level.
Methaq insurance garages in Ajman
Ajman has two approved workshops. With only two, assume a Sharjah or Dubai referral is possible if both are busy, and plan for recovery rather than driving a damaged vehicle across emirates.
| Workshop | Area | Phone | |
| Al Mubarak Garage | — | +971 6 742 2288 | [email protected] |
| Al Bawaba | Al Jerf Industrial 1 | +971 55 443 0885 | — |
Al Mubarak Garage operates branches in both Ajman and Ras Al Khaimah under separate entries, so confirm which branch you have been authorised for. Given the two-workshop position, Ajman drivers have a clear reason to check network size when they compare car insurance in Ajman at renewal.
Methaq garages in Ras Al Khaimah
Ras Al Khaimah has four approved workshops — matching Sharjah, and a genuine surprise given how many UAE insurers run no northern-emirates panel at all. Two of the four are Red Fox Auto Care branches.
| Workshop | Area | Phone | |
| Red Fox Auto Care — Al Dhait South | Al Dhait South, near Al Futtaim Honda | +971 56 787 4777 | [email protected] |
| Red Fox Auto Care — Sheikh Khalifa City | Sheikh Khalifa City, behind Gargash Mercedes | +971 56 456 5777 | [email protected] |
| Al Mubarak Garage | — | +971 55 466 1718 | [email protected] |
| Car Center | Ras Al Khaimah | +971 7 223 4633 | — |
If you live in Ras Al Khaimah and have been told in the past that your insurer would recover your car to Sharjah, this is worth knowing: under Methaq you should not need to. Ask for a local workshop by name when you register the claim.
Methaq garages in Fujairah
Fujairah has two approved workshops, both in Al Hayl Industrial Area — the emirate’s main vehicle repair zone and where most Fujairah insurance repairs are routed.
| Workshop | Area | Phone | |
| Al Masri Auto Centre | Al Hayl Industrial Area | +971 55 466 1718 | [email protected] |
| MK Motors | Al Hayl Industrial Area | +971 50 809 0808 | [email protected] |
Both sit within a few minutes of each other, so a referral to one when the other is full costs you very little. Drivers on the east coast comparing renewal options can review car insurance in Fujairah against this network position.
What about Umm Al Quwain?
Umm Al Quwain is the only emirate with no approved Methaq workshop. UAQ claims are handled from Sharjah or Ajman, and recovery to the assigned workshop can usually be arranged when you register the claim — ask for it at that point rather than afterwards, because arranging it later is treated as a separate request.

How to find a Methaq approved garage near me
Call Methaq claims on 600 565 695 with your policy number and your location, and ask which of the 50 approved workshops covers you. That is the fastest route, and it is the only one that produces an answer Methaq will stand behind.
Three things make the call shorter:
- Have your policy number and vehicle registration to hand — repair eligibility is read off the policy, not the vehicle.
- Say whether the vehicle is drivable. If it is not, ask for recovery at the same time rather than as a second call.
- Name a workshop from your emirate’s table above. A named workshop is far quicker to confirm or rule out than an open-ended request, and it stops you being sent to another emirate by default.
Spelling variations — Meethaq, Mithaq, Al Methaq — all refer to the same insurer, so a search that returns one of those is still pointing you at Methaq Takaful Insurance Company.
Agency repair and non-agency repair: which garages you can use
Your repair cover, not your postcode, is what decides which workshops are open to you. Agency repair sends your car to the manufacturer’s own dealership workshop. Non-agency repair sends it to an insurer-approved independent garage — the 50 workshops listed above.
| Agency repair | Non-agency repair | |
| Where the car is repaired | Manufacturer’s dealership workshop | Insurer-approved independent garage |
| Parts used | Manufacturer original parts | Original or approved equivalent parts |
| Typical premium effect | Higher | Lower |
| Usually available on | Comprehensive policies, often only for newer vehicles | Comprehensive policies as standard |
| Manufacturer warranty | Preserved | May be affected on a vehicle still under warranty |
| Garages on the Methaq network | Not applicable — dealership only | The 50 workshops listed above |
The practical verdict: if your car is under manufacturer warranty or less than about three years old, agency repair is worth the higher premium, because a non-agency repair can jeopardize the warranty you are already paying for. Past that point, non-agency repair at an approved garage is the better value, and the Methaq network is built for it. That decision is made when you buy or renew, not after an accident — so it belongs in the comprehensive car insurance quote you compare, not in the claim.
One hard limit applies regardless: third party car insurance does not repair your own vehicle at all. It covers damage you cause to others, which is why third-party policyholders have no own-damage garage entitlement to look up. If you are unsure which you hold, the difference between comprehensive vs third party car insurance is set out in full separately.
How cashless repair works at a Methaq garage
Cashless repair means Methaq settles the approved repair cost directly with the workshop, so you collect your car without paying the repair bill and without waiting on a reimbursement.
The sequence runs like this:
- You register the claim and Methaq nominates an authorised workshop.
- The workshop inspects the vehicle and submits a repair estimate to Methaq’s claims team. You are not in the middle of this exchange.
- Methaq approves the estimate, or queries specific line items, and issues a repair authorisation.
- Repairs begin. Work started before authorisation is at your own risk and may not be reimbursed.
- Methaq pays the workshop directly. You settle only the amounts your policy leaves with you.
Because the estimate goes straight from workshop to insurer, the administrative delay that usually sits between an accident and a repair — collecting invoices, submitting them, chasing a reimbursement — is removed rather than shortened.
What cashless repair does not cover
Cashless is not the same as free, and this is where most disputes at collection start. Three amounts commonly remain yours to pay even on a fully approved claim:
- The excess. Your policy excess is payable to the workshop when you collect the vehicle, on every own-damage claim. Check the figure on your schedule before you go — car insurance excess is the single most common surprise at handover.
- Depreciation on parts. On older vehicles, insurers commonly apply a depreciation deduction to replaced parts, and the difference is yours.
- Unrelated or pre-existing damage. Anything the assessor attributes to a different incident falls outside the authorisation, even if it is repaired at the same time.
Ask the workshop for the split between the authorised amount and your share before repairs start, not at collection. If the excess lands awkwardly, note that premiums themselves can be spread — you can pay for car insurance in installments with Tabby at renewal, which frees cash for the parts of a claim insurance does not carry.

Why using an approved Methaq garage protects your claim
Repairing outside the network without written authorisation is one of the most reliable ways to lose money on an otherwise valid claim. Methaq has no agreed rates with an unapproved workshop, no assessor access to the vehicle mid-repair, and no contractual recourse if the work is poor.
Staying inside the network gives you four things an unapproved garage cannot:
- Repairs carried out against your policy’s agreed terms and parts standard.
- A documented assessment trail, which is what settles a dispute later.
- Direct settlement, so no reimbursement claim to chase.
- Accountability that sits between insurer and workshop rather than on you.
Unauthorised repair sits alongside late notification and incomplete documentation among the standard reasons a car insurance claim gets rejected in the UAE. All three are avoidable with one phone call before the work starts.
Registering a Methaq insurance claim and getting garage approval
Register first, repair second. A Methaq insurance claim has to exist before a workshop can be authorised, and the order is not negotiable.
- Make the scene safe and obtain a police report where the incident requires one. Under the Unified Motor Vehicle Insurance Policy, own-damage claims are generally assessed against that report.
- Notify Methaq on 600 565 695, or register online at claim.methaq.ae.
- Submit the accident details and documents you are asked for.
- Receive the authorised workshop from the claims team, and confirm it is the one you are driving to.
- Deliver the vehicle for inspection and wait for the repair authorisation before work starts.
The police report is the step that most often holds a claim up, and the process differs by emirate — report a car accident in Dubai through Dubai Police channels, or get an accident report in Abu Dhabi for claims registered in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain. The full Methaq-specific sequence, including document uploads and status tracking, is covered in the Methaq car insurance claim process guide.
Documents to bring to the garage
- Valid Methaq motor policy or its schedule
- Emirates ID
- Driving licence
- Vehicle registration card (Mulkiya)
- Police report, where the incident required one
- The claim reference issued when you registered
If you cannot find your policy document, you do not need to delay the claim — you can download a duplicate car insurance copy online and bring that instead.
Methaq contact details, branches and recovery
Methaq Takaful Insurance Company operates a single toll-free number for claims, roadside assistance and general enquiries: 600 565 695, also reachable on WhatsApp. Use the same number as the Methaq recovery number if your vehicle cannot be driven — there is no separate recovery line to look up.

Methaq is a takaful operator established in 2008, listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange and regulated by the Central Bank of the UAE, which supervises all UAE insurers and the Unified Motor Vehicle Insurance Policy that governs motor cover. Policy documents, renewal dates, premiums and branch details sit with the insurer rather than in this guide — you can review cover levels and compare Methaq Takaful car insurance quotes before your renewal falls due.
The bottom line
There is no official Methaq insurance garage list, and waiting to find one is the mistake worth avoiding. Fifty workshops across seven emirates are approved to repair Methaq claims, 28 of them in the emirate of Abu Dhabi and most of those in Musaffah — but the list that governs your claim is the one the claims team confirms on the day, against your policy.
So do this: register the claim, name a workshop from your emirate’s table, confirm the excess before repairs start, and do not let any work begin without written authorisation. Those four steps are worth more than any directory, and they are what stands between a cashless repair and a bill you did not expect.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a Methaq Takaful Insurance Company garage list PDF?
No. Methaq does not issue a downloadable garage list PDF, and no official directory exists on its website. Any PDF circulating online is compiled by a third party and goes out of date as the panel changes. The workshop authorised for your claim is confirmed by Methaq’s claims team on 600 565 695.
How many approved garages does Methaq have in the UAE?
Fifty workshops across seven emirates are approved for Methaq repairs. Abu Dhabi city holds 21 and Al Ain a further seven, so 56% of the network sits in the emirate of Abu Dhabi. Dubai has ten, Sharjah and Ras Al Khaimah four each, and Ajman and Fujairah two each.
Does Methaq have approved garages in Musaffah?
Yes, and Musaffah is the heart of the network. Most of Abu Dhabi’s 21 approved workshops are there, including Al Shoala, Smart Motor, M19 Garage, Dharagima, Danat Emirates, Cornishe Auto Repair and Orient Motors. Dynatrade covers Mafraq Industrial Area instead. Confirm the workshop with Methaq before delivering your vehicle.
How do I find a Methaq approved garage near me?
Call Methaq claims on 600 565 695 with your policy number and location, then name a workshop from your emirate’s table rather than asking open-endedly. Naming one is faster to confirm and stops you being referred to another emirate by default. Claims can also be registered at claim.methaq.ae.
Are Methaq approved garages available in Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah?
Yes. Ras Al Khaimah has four approved workshops, including two Red Fox Auto Care branches, and Fujairah has two in Al Hayl Industrial Area. Only Umm Al Quwain has none; those claims are handled from Sharjah or Ajman, with recovery usually arranged when you register.
Does the Methaq garage list differ for comprehensive and third party insurance?
Yes, substantially. Third party cover does not repair your own vehicle, so third-party policyholders have no own-damage garage entitlement. Comprehensive policies do, and the workshops open to you then depend on whether your cover includes agency repair at a dealership or non-agency repair at an approved independent garage.
Can I use any garage for repairs under my Methaq policy?
No. Repairs must go through one of the 50 approved workshops unless the claims team gives you written approval otherwise. Using an unapproved garage risks a reduced settlement or an outright rejection, because Methaq has no agreed rates, no assessor access and no recourse on that work.
