The Dubai Civil Aviation Authority (DCA) (Arabic: هيئة دبي للطيران المدني) is the governing body which oversees aviation activities in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Management of Dubai's airports and cargo gateways have been transferred to Dubai Airports Company, a separate entity from the Department of Civil Aviation.

With this restructuring, the scope of the Department of Civil Aviation's activities have been narrowed to aviation regulations and permissions.
