What is EJARI?
EJARI means My Rent in Arabic. Ejari is a system that is governed by
RERA to make registration of rental / lease agreements easy and
accessible to Owners and Real Estate Management Companies of various
categories. The Ejari system provides a full portfolio of services
beyond registering the initial lease agreement. Renewals,
cancellations, transfers and terminations can all be logged.
What is Premises number and where can
I get it from?
Premises number is a 9 digit identification code provided for
each unit of the building. First three digits (community number)
represents the first part of your plot number. Premises number is
found on the door of each unit fixed by DEWA.
NOTE: EJARI registration cannot be done if the Tenancy
Contract is issued from other emirates (eg. Abu Dhabi, Sharjah,
Ajman..etc). In that case, the contract has to be attested from
concerned Municipality/Land Department and attach Electricity Bill.

Frequently Asked Question
Q: I understand that at the time of renewing a flat, I should
pay not more than Dh260 for renewal. The agent at International City
asked me for Dh1,000 to Dh1,500 to renew the contract. I stayed for
one year and the agent is asking me paint the studio apartment or pay
Dh250. I went to the police station whereby I have been told to pay
Dh150 for the painting. Is this rule applicable in Dubai?
A: As a general rule, a tenancy contract should be renewed on
the same terms and conditions unless the parties to the contract
otherwise agree. If the parties do not agree, the increase must be
approved by the Rent Committee. A landlord/agent cannot increase the
rent or related expenses without obtaining a verdict from the Rent
Committee.
Furthermore, on one hand, while the law imposes an obligation upon the
landlord to hand over the property in good condition, on the other
hand, the law obliges the tenant to take care of the leased property.
No person, including the agent or landlord, is allowed to impose a
fine or decide the value of damage without obtaining a valid verdict
from the Rent Committee. If the condition of the paint is normal and
comes under normal wear and tear, it is the landlords responsibility.
Otherwise, it will be your responsibility.
It is worthy to note here that in case of dispute between you and the
landlord regarding its condition, the dispute should be referred to
the Rent Committee.
