2021-11-28: A story in the Khaleej Times describing a programme run by the Dubai Municipality to verify the accuracy of scales at 150 retail establishments in the city.

DCL (Dubai Central Laboratory) had started a similar initiative in gold and jewellery stores last year. It has now chosen shops selling expensive perfumes and saffron, and the hypermarkets, supermarkets and co-operative stores which receive large number of customers and carry out several transactions on a daily basis.

And:

“In particular, they ensure that the balances are accurate to international standards, that the measurements they show are clearly and correctly visible to the customer and that they use the international metric system.”

Apparatuses that pass the test will receive a sticker reading “verified”, while those that don’t will receive a “rejected” sticker. A rejected apparatus will not be allowed to be used for trade in the Emirate of Dubai.
