Left my bike in RAK the other week.
As some have mentioned lately, in the airport departure chain of queues, at Customs had I not volunteered to fill out a form (VIN, location, etc - 10 mins) and complete another authorisation form to show Police (next step), the immigration Police would have been none the wiser.
Immigration policewoman looked baffled at my Customs authorisation form and handed it back.
I did it because in Oct 2021 I was sent back to do it (see earlier post).
So now it seems C and P systems not as connected as was thought and you can dodge the form filling.
At worst you're sent back; will take 10 mins.
Important thing will be to not lose your white TVIP card for overland exit with vehicle before 6 months are up.
A few weeks later flew in for a week.
Heading back, did not bother stopping a Customs and passed through immigration police with no bother.
