No, this is a common myth: the DLD registration fee is 4% for both ready and off-plan purchases. What happens is developers sometimes run time-limited 'DLD waiver' promotions covering 50-100% of the 4% at selected launches. That is the developer absorbing the fee, not a lower government rate, so read the offer terms carefully.
Figures here are indicative as of July 2026 and set by third parties (government, banks, developers) — confirm the current amount before relying on it.
