UAE-Yango, an international ride-hailing app, was launched in Dubai in September 2022. InDriver was the first outsider to enter ride hailing service in Suez, Egypt, in September 2020. Uber decided in 2018 to invest another $100 million in Egypt over the next five years to expand all its services in the country.

For example, in Saudi Arabia, a rule imposed in 2021 limited the pool of drivers by requiring them to be Saudi citizens and personally own their vehicle. The National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) temporarily barred SWVL from Kenyan roads after the governmental agency discovered that the mass transport business was not be properly licensed to operate in the nation.
