Document reminders on WhatsApp
Remembers the dates, so you don’t have to.
Tell Thakira when your Civil ID, resident card, driving licence, passport or vehicle registration expires. It messages you on WhatsApp before the date, and shows the renewal steps when you need them.
The dates that are easy to forget
Add any of these, or anything else you need to remember.
- Civil ID
- Resident card
- Driving licence
- Passport
- Vehicle registration

- Commercial registration
How it works
Say hello
Message Thakira on WhatsApp. It replies in the language of your first message, English or Arabic.
Add a date
Type it, pick it from a short form, or send a photo of the document. Thakira always checks it with you before saving.
Get reminded
You hear from us before the date, at 9:00 in the morning, with buttons to snooze, mark as renewed or stop.
Meetings and errands too
Write it the way you would say it. Thakira works out the time, saves it, and reminds you before it starts.
I'll remind you at 8:00 AM.
You didn't say AM or PM, so I assumed 9:00 AM.
Your privacy, kept simple
Only what is needed
We keep your phone number, language, and the name and expiry date of each document or reminder you add.
No photos kept
If you send a photo of a document, it is read and discarded. We never store the image.
No ID numbers, please
Don’t send ID numbers. If one arrives in a message, we don’t save it or repeat it back.
You are in control
Send STOP to end all messages, and START to receive them again. Send “delete my data” and confirm, and we erase the information we hold about you. We keep only minimal technical records for a short period, and minimal audit records, with no message content.
Questions
Is Thakira free?
Yes, it is free while we launch. We may introduce paid plans later and will tell you first.
Which documents can I add?
Civil ID, resident card, driving licence, passport, vehicle registration, resident visa, commercial registration, and your own custom reminders.
Does Thakira tell me how to renew?
Yes. Renewal steps come from guides we review and date-stamp, with a link to the official source. If we don’t have a guide yet, we say so and point you to the official portal rather than guess.
Is Thakira a government service?
No. Thakira is an independent service. Always confirm renewal rules and fees with the official authority.
Can I stop the messages?
Any time. Send STOP, and START when you want messages again. To stop one document only, tap “Stop reminders” on its reminder, and send “resume” plus the document name to restart it.
Which languages are supported?
English and Arabic.
