What Is a Makani Number in Dubai?

A Makani number is a unique 10-digit code assigned to every building in Dubai, enabling precise location identification. It functions as part of the city’s geographic addressing system, allowing residents, visitors, and service providers to locate properties with pinpoint accuracy. The Makani system is integrated with GPS technology and covers all types of properties, from residential to commercial, simplifying navigation across the emirate. The number is typically displayed at the entrance of buildings and can be used in maps, navigation apps, and by delivery or emergency services for accurate location tracking.
