UAE: Single-Use Plastic Ban Goes Into Effect in Ras Al Khaimah From Jan. 1

The emirate of Ras Al Khaimah has announced that it is implementing a ban on single-use plastic bags starting January 1, 2024.

The emirate’s Environment Protection and Development Authority (EPDA) announced the impending ban on Wednesday.

The announcement is in line with the UAE government’s initiative to eliminate single-use plastics which was announced earlier this year.

The EPDA law banning the use of single-use plastic bags has been brought under under Law No. (4) of 2023. This law prohibits the use, possession, trading, sale, or distribution of single-use plastic materials in the emirate, gradually starting with a ban on single-use plastic bags.
