Etihad Rail operates as the United Arab Emirates’ national railway network, with a mandate to develop, construct, and run rail services for freight and passengers. The network is intended to connect major centers of industry, production, population, and trade, and is envisioned as a vital part of a broader GCC rail system. The organization is based in Abu Dhabi and employs a workforce in the low thousands. Recent developments show ongoing expansion and integration with port infrastructure to support cross-regional supply chains. For example, in June 2026 a collaboration led to Gulftainer integrating with Etihad Rail to connect Khorfakkan Port to the railway network.
