Dubai Traffic Prosecution officials said initial investigations showed that the minibus, driven by a 34-year-old Pakistani man, blew a tyre. He lost control and the vehicle collided with a nearby car, killing the woman, whose identity has not yet been released.
Seven other people were also injured in the accident.
The investigation is continuing, officials say.
