Effective Date: 29 January 2026

These Provider Terms and Conditions (“Provider Terms”) govern the relationship between Travel Tech L.L.C-FZ, a company incorporated in the Meydan Free Zone and having its registered office at Meydan Grandstand, the 6th floor, Meydan Road, Nad Al Sheba, Dubai, United Arab Emirates (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), and you as an excursion provider (“Provider”, “you”, or “your”) for listing, promoting, and selling excursions and tourism experiences (the “Excursions”)  on the karta.travel online platform (the “Platform”).

By registering as a Provider, listing an Excursion, or otherwise using the Platform to offer your services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Provider Terms, as well as our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Provider Terms, you must not use the Platform as a Provider.

These Provider Terms incorporate by reference all applicable laws of the United Arab Emirates (“UAE”), including Federal Decree-Law No. 14 of 2023 on Trading by Modern Technological Means (the “E-Commerce Law”), Federal Law No. 15 of 2020 on Consumer Protection (the “Consumer Protection Law”), Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data (the “PDPL”), and the laws of the Emirate of Dubai and the regulations of the Meydan Free Zone Authority. In the event of any conflict between these Provider Terms and applicable law, the provisions of applicable law shall prevail.

1.   Description of the Platform and Provider Role

1.1 The Platform is an online marketplace that connects Providers with users (“Users”) seeking Excursions, tours, and related tourism experiences in the UAE and beyond. We act solely as an intermediary and agent for Providers, facilitating bookings, payments, and communications. Providers are independent third parties responsible for delivering the Excursions.

To expand the reach of Excursions and attract more Users, the Platform has the technical capability and right to publish and distribute Excursion information (including duplication where necessary) on third-party online platforms and marketplaces owned by its partners (“Partner Platforms”). Bookings made via Partner Platforms are concluded between the User and the Provider, governed by the Provider’s terms, the Platform’s terms, and the laws of the UAE. The Platform continues to act as intermediary in these transactions.

1.2 As a Provider, you agree to list accurate, complete, and up-to-date information about your Excursions, including descriptions, prices, availability, terms, participant requirements, and any risks. All listings must comply with UAE tourism standards, including those issued by the Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) in Dubai.

1.3 We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Platform at any time, with or without notice, provided such actions comply with the Consumer Protection Law and do not unfairly prejudice your existing bookings.

1.4 Providers must be duly licensed entities or individuals holding valid UAE tour operator licenses or equivalent permits as required by DET or other relevant authorities. You represent and warrant that you maintain all necessary licenses, insurances, and permits for your Excursions.

2.   Provider Registration and Account

2.1 To list Excursions, you must create a provider account (“Provider Account”) by providing accurate, current, and complete information, including business name, contact details, license numbers, bank details for payouts, and proof of identity. You represent and warrant that all information provided is true, accurate, and up-to-date.

2.2 You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Provider Account credentials and for all activities occurring under your Provider Account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use. We shall not be liable for any loss arising from your failure to comply with this obligation.

2.3 We reserve the right to review, approve, suspend, or terminate your Provider Account or any listings for any breach of these Provider Terms, inaccurate information, poor User feedback, or non-compliance with UAE laws, in accordance with the E-Commerce Law and Consumer Protection Law.

3. Listing and Booking Process

3.1 You may list Excursions via the Platform by submitting details through the Provider Account. All listings are subject to our approval and must include clear terms, cancellation policies, health and safety disclosures, and pricing (inclusive of any taxes or fees as required by the Consumer Protection Law).

3.2 Bookings are facilitated by the Platform. Upon confirmation, a binding contract is formed between you and the User, with us acting as your agent. You agree to honor all confirmed bookings, subject to availability and these Provider Terms.

3.3 You must respond to booking inquiries and confirmations within 24 hours. Failure to do so may result in automatic cancellation and penalties.

3.4 You agree to update availability in real-time and notify us immediately of any changes, cancellations, or overbookings.

4. Reconciliation

4.2 The Platform shall prepare and make available the Reconciliation to the Provider via the Provider’s account on the Platform between the 1st and 10th day (inclusive) of the month following the reporting month.

4.3. During the period specified in Clause 4.2, the Provider may:

• review the status of Bookings and amounts in the Reconciliation for the previous reporting month;
• submit comments or objections to specific items or to the Reconciliation as a whole via the Platform interface or in writing to the Platform’s designated email.

4.4. The Provider shall not have the right to amend or modify Bookings or data therein displayed in the Reconciliation. Amendments to Bookings may be made solely by authorised representatives of the Platform.

4.5. The Reconciliation shall be deemed approved and accepted by the Provider if no reasoned written objections are submitted by the Provider to the Platform by the end of the 10th day of the month following the reporting month. Silence or failure to object constitutes tacit acceptance.

4.6. After the 10th day of the month following the reporting month, no amendments to the Reconciliation shall be permitted. The Reconciliation shall become final and binding as of the 11th day.

4.7. The Parties hereby expressly agree that mutual set-off of homogeneous monetary debts and claims arising under this Agreement and/or other agreements between the Parties is permitted in accordance with the Federal Law No. 5/1985 (Civil Code).

Any remaining balance shall be settled by the owing Party in accordance with Clause 5 below.
