Ejari ('my rent') is RERA's mandatory system that registers your tenancy contract so it is legally recognised — you need it for DEWA, visas and disputes. Register via the Dubai REST app (instant certificate) or a typing/trustee centre, costing roughly AED 220 at a trustee centre. The landlord is technically responsible, but tenants usually pay and complete it.
Rules and eligibility criteria change — confirm the current position with the relevant authority before acting. This is general information, not legal advice.
Figures here are indicative as of July 2026 and set by third parties (government, banks, developers) — confirm the current amount before relying on it.
